• Recommended distance A from
wall to outer edge of nozzle: ~
1/6 of tank diameter.
Nevertheless the device should
not be installed closer than
15 cm (5.91 in) to the tank
wall.
• Not in the center (2), as
interference can cause signal
loss.
• Not above the fill stream (3).
• It is recommended to us a
weather protection cover (1) in
order to protect the device from
direct sun or rain.
Avoid any installations (limit
switches, temperature sensors,
braces, vacuum rings, heating
coils, baffles etc.) inside the
signal beam. Take into account
the beam angle (→ 19).
Reduction of interference echoes
A0016890
Metallic screens mounted at
a slope spread the radar
signal and can, therefore,
reduce interference echoes.
6.1.4
Measurement in a plastic vessel
If the outer wall of the vessel is made of a non-conductive material (e.g. GRP),
microwaves can also be reflected off interfering installations outside the signal beam
(e.g. metallic pipes (1), ladders (2), grates (3), ...). Therefore, there should be no such
interfering installations in the signal beam. Please contact Endress+Hauser for further
information.
• Antenna size
The bigger the antenna, the smaller the beam angle α and the fewer interference
echoes (→ 19).
• Mapping
The measurement can be optimized by means of electronic suppression of
interference echoes.
• Antenna alignment
Take into account the marker on the flange or threaded connection (→ 22)
(→ 24) .
• Stilling well
A stilling well can be applied to avoid interferences (→ 27).
• Metallic screens mounted at a slope
They spread the radar signals and can, therefore, reduce interference echoes.
Relationship between beam angle α, distance D and beamwidth diameter W
The beam angle is defined as the angle α where the energy density of the radar waves
reaches half the value of the maximum energy density (3-dB-width). Microwaves are
also emitted outside the signal beam and can be reflected off interfering installations.
Beam diameter W as a function of beam angle α and measuring distance D:

• In case of boiling surfaces, bubbling or tendency for foaming use FMR53 or
FMR54. Depending on its consistence, foam can either absorb microwaves or reflect
them off the foam surface. Measurement is possible under certain conditions. For
FMR50, FMR51 and FMR52, the additional option "Advanced dynamics" is
recommended in these cases (feature 540: "Application Package", option EM).
• In case of heavy steam development or condensate, the maximum measuring range
of FMR50, FMR51 and FMR52 may decrease depending on density, temperature and
composition of the steam → use FMR53 or FMR54.
• For the measurement of absorbing gases such as ammonia NH3 or some
fluorocarbons 1), please use Levelflex or Micropilot FMR54 in a stilling well.
• The measuring range begins, where the beam hits the tank bottom. Particularly with
dish bottoms or conical outlets the level cannot be detected below this point.
• For stilling well applications, the zero should be positioned at the end of the tube, as
the electromagnetic waves do not propagate completely outside the tube. It must be
taken into account that the accuracy may be reduced in the area C. In order to
guarantee the required accuracy in these cases, it is recommended to position the
zero-point at a distance C above the end of the tube (see figure).
• In case of media with a low dielectric constant (εr = 1.5 to 4) 2) the tank bottom can
be visible through the medium at low levels (low height C). Reduced accuracy has to
be expected in this range. If this is not acceptable, we recommend positioning the
zero point at a distance C (see figure) above the tank bottom in these applications.
• In principle it is possible to measure up to the tip of the antenna with FMR51,
FMR53 and FMR54. However, due to considerations regarding corrosion and build-
up, the end of the measuring range should not be chosen any closer than A (see
figure) to the tip of the antenna.
• When using FMR54 with planar antenna, especially for media with low dielectric
constants, the end of the measuring range should not be closer than 1 m (3.28 ft) to
the flange.
• The smallest possible measuring range B depends on the antenna version (see
figure).
• The tank height should be at least H (see table).

Affected compounds are e.g. R134a, R227, Dymel 152a.
