Description

The FMR20B radar level transmitter utilizes Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) radar technology at approximately 80 GHz to provide highly reliable and accurate non-contact level measurement. This principle ensures stable performance even in applications with dust, foam, or varying dielectric constants.

Engineered for industrial durability, the transmitter features a robust PBT/PC housing rated IP66/68 and NEMA 4X/6P, making it suitable for outdoor, washdown, and hazardous area installations. Its 2-wire, 4–20mA loop-powered design simplifies integration into existing control systems, while the integrated HART protocol enables advanced device configuration and diagnostics.

Key Features

  • 80 GHz FMCW radar sensor for precise, non-contact level measurement up to 30 m range.
  • High measurement accuracy of ±2 mm (±0.08") ensures reliable process control.
  • Dual output interface: 4–20mA analog with superimposed HART digital communication.
  • Integrated Bluetooth wireless technology for tool-free setup via the SmartBlue mobile app.
  • Rugged IP66/68 and NEMA 4X/6P enclosure for extreme environmental protection.
  • Wide supply voltage range from 12 to 30 VDC for flexible power sourcing.
  • Extended operating temperature range from -40°C to +80°C.
  • Certified for use in hazardous areas (ATEX, IECEx) for safe operation.

Applications

  • Continuous level monitoring of liquids (water, chemicals, fuels) in storage tanks and process vessels.
  • Bulk solid level measurement in silos for grains, powders, plastics, and other granular materials.
  • Process control in water and wastewater treatment plants for clarifiers and filter beds.
  • Inventory management in chemical processing and pharmaceutical storage facilities.
  • Level monitoring in remote or hazardous locations requiring robust, low-maintenance instrumentation.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the output signal of the FMR20B level transmitter?

The transmitter provides a standard 2-wire, 4–20mA analog output signal, which is the industry standard for process control. Superimposed on this analog signal is the HART digital communication protocol, allowing for bidirectional digital configuration, diagnostics, and data querying without interrupting the analog loop.

What is the maximum measuring range and accuracy of this device?

The FMR20B has a maximum measuring range of up to 30 meters (98 feet). Its high-precision 80 GHz FMCW radar technology delivers a measurement accuracy of ±2 millimeters (±0.08 inches), making it suitable for applications requiring precise inventory control or process level regulation.

Is this transmitter suitable for hazardous areas or outdoor use?

Yes. The device is housed in a robust PBT/PC enclosure with IP66/68 and NEMA 4X/6P ratings, providing excellent protection against dust, water ingress, and corrosive environments. It also carries international explosion protection certifications (e.g., ATEX, IECEx), making it approved for installation in classified hazardous areas.

How do I configure and commission the FMR20B transmitter?

Commissioning can be done wirelessly via the integrated Bluetooth connection and the Endress+Hauser SmartBlue mobile app (available for iOS and Android). This allows for convenient, tool-free setup, parameter adjustment, and real-time diagnostics without needing physical access to the device in hard-to-reach installations.

What is the required power supply for this 2-wire transmitter?

The FMR20B operates on a standard 2-wire, loop-powered 4–20mA circuit. It requires a DC supply voltage between 12 and 30 volts, which is typical for most industrial power supplies and PLC analog input modules. The device's low power consumption ensures stable operation within this wide voltage range.
