Reflector Operation; Parallel Operation - Endress+Hauser Soliwave FDR56 Operating Instructions Manual

Soliwave FDR56/FQR56
Endress+Hauser
Loosen device 1 (here FQR56) and move it slowly by a = ±10 mm (±0.4 in) until a
signal maximum is reached (LED signal strength), fix device again.
Example:
Then loosen device 2 (here FDR56) and move it slowly by b = ±10 mm (±0.4 in) until
a signal maximum is reached, fix the device again.
Example:
Position change performed (here horizontal shift)
‣ Perform automatic adjustment again

Reflector operation

Direct comparison of FQR56 and FDR56 not possible�
‣ Deflect microwave beam via plane metal mirrors (reflectors).
5 Reflector operation
1 Reflector
α Angle of entrance = angle of emission
• Arrange devices symmetrically to the reflector (entrance angle = exit angle).
• Range reduction per reflector: 10 %

Parallel operation

Mutual interference is to be avoided�
‣ Rotate every second microwave barrier by 90°.
