3.3 Installation conditions

3.3.1 Engineering hints

Orientation

• Recommended distance (1) wall - outer edge of nozzle: ~1/6 of tank diameter

("Beam angle",  ä 12).

• Not in the centre (3), interference can cause signal loss.

• Not above the fill stream (4).

• It is recommended to use a weather protection cover (2) in order to protect the transmitter from direct sun or rain. Assembly and disassembly is simply done by means of a tension clamp ("Accessories",  ä 63).

A0020541

Tank installations

• Avoid any installations (1), like limit switches, temperature sensors, etc., inside the signal beam ("Beam angle",  ä 12).

• It is essential that HiHi alarm is below the blocking distance (BD) and the safety distance (SD).

• Symmetrical installations (2), e.g. vacuum rings, heating coils, baffles, etc., can also interfere with the measurement.

Optimization options

• Antenna size: the bigger the antenna, the smaller the beam angle, the less interference echoes.

• Mapping: the measurement can be optimized by means of electronic suppression of interference echoes.

• Antenna alignment: "Optimum mounting position",  ä 15.

• Stilling well: a stilling well can always be used to avoid interference. The FMR532

A0020450

with planar antenna is recommended for stilling wells with a diameter DN150 (6") and larger.

• Metallic screens (3) mounted at a slope spread the radar signals and can, therefore, reduce interference echoes.

Please contact Endress+Hauser for further information.

Beam angle

The beam angle is defined as the angle  where the energy density of the radar waves reaches half the value of the maximum energy density (3dB-width). Microwaves are also emitted outside the signal beam and can be reflected off interfering installations. Beam diameter W is a function of antenna type (beam angle ) and measuring distance D. The recommended distance to the tank wall is indicated in the tables below. It is strongly recommended to avoid any mechanical obstacles within the highlighted area.

Measuring conditions

• Tank diameter and height should be at least dimensioned such that a reflection of the radar signal on both sides of the tank can be avoided.

• In case of media with a low dielectric constant (media groups A and B), 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 Fig.) above the tank bottom in these applications.

• In principle it is possible to measure up to the tip of the antenna with FMR540. However, due to considerations regarding accuracy corrosion and build-up, the end of the measuring range should not be chosen any closer than A (see A in Fig.).

Installation Micropilot S FMR540 4 to 20 mA HART

Measuring range

The usable measuring range depends on the size of the antenna, the reflectivity of the medium, the mounting location and eventual interference reflections. To achieve an optimised signal strength it is recommended to use an antenna with as large as possible diameter (DN200(8") or DN250 (10") parabolic antenna). The following tables describe the groups of media as well as the achievable measuring range as a function of application and media group. If the dielectric constant of a medium is unknown, it is recommended to assume media group B to ensure a reliable measurement.

Media group DC (r) Examples

A1 1.4 to 1.6 Propane, butane

A2 1.6 to 1.9 Non-conducting liquids, kerosene, jet fuels, gasoline, LPG

B 1.9 to 4

C 4 to 10 E.g. concentrated acids, organic solvents, esters, aniline, alcohol, acetone, …

D > 10 Conducting liquids, e.g. aqueous solutions, dilute acids and alkalis

Non-conducting liquids, e.g. gasline, diesel fuel, heavy oil, motor oil, asphalt, bitumen, BTEX, residual fuel

4.1 Quick wiring guide

When grounding conductive screens, the corresponding directives EN 60079-14 and EN 1127-1 must be observed. Recommendation for safe grounding of conductive screens:

Before connection please note the following:

‣ The power supply must be identical to the data on the nameplate. ‣ Switch off power supply before connecting the device. ‣ Connect equipotential bonding to transmitter ground terminal before connecting the

device.

‣ Tighten the locking screw:

It forms the connection between the antenna and the housing ground potential.

‣ When you use the measuring system in hazardous areas, make sure you comply with

national standards and the specifications in the safety instructions (XA’s)

4.1.1 Wiring

Before connection please note the following:

‣ The power supply to be delivered by a transmitter supply unit. ‣ Befor removing housing cover at seperate connection compartment turn off the power

supply!

Insert cable through gland . Use screened, twisted 2-wire or 4-wire cable.

Only ground screening of the line on sensor side.

Make connection (see pin assignment). Tighten cable gland. Replace and tighten off housing cover. Switch on power supply.

A Micropilot S situated in a hazardous area is connected as a single device to a power supply unit and transmitter situated outside of the hazardous area. In this case, it is recommended that the screen be connected directly to the Micropilot at the housing’s earth, whereby the Micropilot S and the power supply unit are connected to the same potential equalization line.
