Application
The Micropilot FMR56 is specifically engineered for operation in light industrial environments, particularly suited for silos and bulk material containers. This free-space radar is designed for continuous, non-contact level measurement of powdered and granular materials. Measurement accuracy remains unaffected by dust, filling noise, temperature variations, or gas layers.
The PP-coated horn antenna can be easily aligned to the material surface using mounting brackets or swivel seals.
