Category:Level
Information

Information

High performance sensor, especially compact and the perfect fit for fast changing level applications

Micropilot FMR43 is for free space applications up to 15 m (49 ft) and offers an additional 180 GHz sensor option for small vessels.

The Micropilot FMR43 is suitable for a wide range of hygienic applications:

Mixing applications of viscous and low conductive media

Filling applications of viscous media

Storage of low conductive fluids

Level measurement in tanks with changing media density

Outstanding ease of use due to easy setup and operation with guided wizards

Improved process and product safety through configuration integrity - a checksum algorithm (CRC) ensures that safety relevant parameters remain unchanged

Increased productivity thanks to traceable and documented on-demand verification including the radar's accuracy without process interruption with Heartbeat Technology

Documented compliance through certified hygienic design as well as proven material conformity and traceability

Flexibility in scale - installation in tight space conditions thanks to compact sensor design and small process connections as well as use in large tanks and silos

Performance meets hygienic industry requirements: The Compact Line
