Description

Application

The Levelflex FMP51 radar level sensor is designed for accurate level measurement in extreme process conditions, such as high temperatures and pressures, in the process industry. It ensures maximum reliability even in challenging situations, such as when surfaces are moving, foam is present, or numerous tank baffles cause interference. The FMP51 is suitable for continuous level measurement of liquids, pastes, and slurries, as well as for interface measurement. The performance remains unaffected by changes in media, temperature fluctuations, gas blankets, or vapors.

Available in versions with rod, rope, or coax 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: 10 m (33 ft), Rope: 45 m (148 ft), Coax: 6 m (20 ft)
Accuracy: ±2 mm (0.08 in)

The Levelflex FMP51 also holds international explosion protection certificates, overfill prevention compliance (WHG), SIL certification, marine approvals, and a 5-point linearity protocol.

Benefits

  • Reliable Measurement: Delivers accurate results even under changing product and process conditions.
  • HistoROM Data Management: Simplifies commissioning, maintenance, and diagnostics.
  • Multi-Echo Tracking: Enhances reliability with improved evaluation methods.
  • SIL3 Compliance: Developed according to IEC 61508 standards for maximum safety.
  • Heartbeat Technology: Ensures cost-effective and safe plant operations throughout the lifecycle.
  • Seamless Integration: Easily integrates into control and asset management systems, with an intuitive, menu-guided operation concept (on-site or via control systems).
  • Simplified Proof Testing: Provides the world's easiest proof test for SIL and WHG, saving time and reducing costs.
