Applications
The Micropilot FMR62B represents the latest generation of 80 GHz radar sensors, designed for continuous non-contact level measurement in demanding liquid applications. It handles extreme process conditions including elevated temperatures, high pressures, and variable media properties. Integrated SIL-locking and proof test procedures minimize systematic error risks. Heartbeat Technology provides continuous verification and monitoring capabilities to detect irregularities, enhancing both safety and operational efficiency.
Ideal for open-space measurements up to 80m, the FMR62B features precise beam focusing for vessels containing numerous internal obstructions.
