Guided Wave Radar Level Sensor Levelflex FMP55
- SKU:
- Levelflex FMP55 series
- Weight:
- 0.00 Grams
Description
Application
The Levelflex FMP55 guided wave radar with SensorFusion is the world's first to combine capacitance and guided radar measurement principles in a single device. This advanced sensor ensures precise measurement even in challenging emulsion layers and provides simultaneous level and interface signals. As a result, the FMP55 Multiparameter sets a new standard for interface measurement, particularly in the oil & gas, chemical, and petrochemical industries.
Available versions include rod, rope, or coaxial probes.
- Process Connections: Thread or flange
- Temperature Range: -50 to +200°C (-58 to +392°F)
- Pressure Range: -1 to +40 bar (-14.5 to +580 psi)
- Maximum Measuring Range:
- Rod: 4 m (13 ft)
- Rope: 10 m (33 ft)
- Coax: 6 m (20 ft)
- Accuracy: ±2 mm (0.08") for rod probes
International explosion protection certifications, overfill prevention (WHG), SIL compliance, and marine approval are available.
Benefits
- Reliable measurement even with fluctuating products and varying process conditions.
- HistoROM Data Management: Simplifies commissioning, maintenance, and diagnostics.
- Enhanced reliability with Multi-Echo Tracking evaluation.
- Developed in compliance with IEC 61508 for up to SIL3 safety integrity level.
- Heartbeat Technology: Ensures cost-effective, safe plant operation throughout the device's life cycle.
- Seamless integration with control and asset management systems, featuring intuitive, menu-guided operation (both on-site and via control systems).
- Simplifies proof testing for SIL and WHG requirements, reducing time and costs.
