Time-of-Flight measuring principle

  • Micropilot FMR530

For custody transfer and inventory control applications with NMi- and PTB-approvals

The Micropilot FMR530 is used for highly accurate non-contact level measurement in storage tanks and can be applied in custody transfer applications. It meets the relevant requirements according to OIML R85 and API 3.1B. The FMR530 free space radar offers cost-effective and simple installation via 4-wire cable with HART and
24 V DC intrinsically safe power supply.

  • Benefits

    • 0.5mm accuracy (2σ value)

    • National approvals (NMi, PTB) for custody transfer

    • Applicable as stand-alone system or integrated tank gauging systems via the Tank Side Monitor NRF590

    • Easy on-site operation via menu-driven alphanumeric display

    • Easy commissioning...

  • Field of application

    With horn antenna suitable for free space applications (up to 25m) that disallow the use of a parabolic antenna due to tank/nozzle geometry.

    • Process connection: Flange

    • Temperature: -40 to +200°C (-40 to +392°F)

    • Pressure: -1 to +64bar (-14.5 to +928psi)
