Reliable level measurements in bunker and stockpiles
Radar measurement solutions for solid applications
The new 80 GHz free space radar sensors Micropilot FMR10B, FRM20B, FMR30B offer reliable level measurement in basic solid applications independent from external influences and material properties. Highly variable surface conditions due to fast-moving bulk material, are no challenge. Installation efforts and operation are simplified thanks to remote and on-device access. On-demand verification and diagnostic proof tests are guided through wizard and can be performed without process interruption.
Your advantages
Reliable measurement performance – regardless of weather conditions, physical state of the medium or widely varying grain size – thanks to the highly developed radar chip, the wide range of installation options and weather protection cover.
In-house-developed 80GHz radar chip and 80mm antenna for precise measurements up to 30m.
Heartbeat Technology enables diagnostics and verification during operation without device removal. Certified, verifiable and documented in accordance with ISO 9001.
Guided setup sequences (called “wizards”) considerably simplify commissioning, proof tests and verifications.
Intuitive remote use via app and on-device with the color touch display ensures fast and safe commissioning, operation and control.
Your challenge
In bunker, dumps and stockpiles extreme demands of weather conditions like sun, wind, rain or snow, can lead to a variation in material states. Grains can therefore be dry, wet or even frozen. These states also change the solids property, which can influence the reflection of the radar signal and measurement result. In addition, highly variable grain sizes, measurement hights and frequently changing surface formations also have an impact on the measurement accuracy.
Our solution
The simpler, the better: Endress+Hauser's answer is the new product family Micropilot FMR10B, FMR20B and FMR30B. Equipped with 80GHz radar technology, the measurement is highly precise and reliable independent of media properties. The new devices can be complemented with a variety of accessories to eliminate the challenges of weather and mounting conditions.
