6.1.2 Vessel installations
Avoid any installations (point level

switches, temperature sensors, braces,
vacuum rings, heating coils, baffles etc.)
inside the signal beam. Take into account
the beam angle →  21.
A0018944
6.1.3 Reduction of interference echoes
Metallic screens mounted at a slope

spread the radar signal and can,
therefore, reduce interference echoes.
A0016890
Endress+Hauser 19
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.

A0017123
6.1.5 Optimization options

• Antenna size
The bigger the antenna, the smaller the beam angle α and the fewer interference echoes
→  21.
• Mapping
The measurement can be optimized by means of electronic suppression of interference
echoes.
See the Confirm distance parameter (→  109) for details.
• Antenna alignment
Take into account the marker on the flange or threaded connection →  24
→  27 .
• Stilling well
A stilling well can be applied to avoid interferences →  28.
• Metallic screens mounted at a slope
They spread the radar signals and can, therefore, reduce interference echoes.

6.2 Measuring conditions

• 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 2), 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) 3) 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.
2) Affected compounds are e.g. R134a, R227, Dymel 152a.

3) Dielectric constants of important media commonly used in various industries are summarized in the DC manual (CP01076F) and in the Endress
+Hauser "DC Values App" (available for Android and iOS).
22 Endress+Hauser
• When using FMR54 with planar antenna, especially for media with low dielectric
constants, the end of the measuring range should not be closer than A: 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).

6.3 Mounting cladded flanges

• Use flange screws according to the number of flange holes.
• Tighten the screws with the required torque (see table).
• Retighten the screws after 24 hours or after the first temperature cycle.
• Depending on process pressure and process temperature check and retighten the
screws at regular intervals.
Usually, the PTFE flange cladding also serves as a seal between the nozzle and the
device flange.

Alignment
• Align the antenna vertically to the product surface.
The maximum range may be reduced if the horn antenna is not vertically aligned.
• A marking at the flange (somewhere between the flange holes) or the boss enables
alignment of the antenna. This marking must be aligned towards the tank wall as well
as possible.

If the antenna doesn't extend below the nozzle, observe the following:
• The nozzle end must be smooth and free of burrs. If possible its edge should be
rounded.
• An interference echo suppression must be performed.
• Please contact Endress+Hauser for applications with higher nozzles than those
indicated in the table.
• For mounting in heigh nozzles the device is available in a version with an antenna
extension of up to 1 000 mm (39.4 in) 4)
• The antenna extension may cause interference echoes in the near range. In this
case it may occur that the maximum measurable level is reduced.
Threaded connection
For devices with a threaded connection it may be necessary - depending on the
antenna size - to unmount the horn before fastening the device and to mount it again
afterwards.
• Tighten with the hexagonal nut only.
• Tool : 55 mm hexagonal wrench
• Maximum permissible torque: 60 Nm (44 lbf ft)
6.4.2 Mesurement from the outside through plastic walls (FMR50/

FMR51)
• Dielectric constant of the medium: εr > 10
• If possible, use an antenna 100 mm (4 in).
• The distance from the lower edge of the antenna to the tank ceiling should be about
100 mm (4 in).
• If possible, avoid mounting locations where condensation or build-up might occur.
• In case of outdoor mounting, the space between antenna and vessel has to be protected
from the elements.
• Do not mount any potential reflectors (e.g. pipes) outside the tank in the signal beam.

Alignment
• Align the antenna vertically to the product surface.
The maximum range may be reduced if the horn antenna is not vertically aligned.
• A marking at the flange (somwhere between the flange holes) or the boss enables
alignment of the antenna. This marking must be aligned towards the tank wall as well
as possible.

8 Installation in stilling well

1 Marking for antenna alignment
• For horn antenna: Align the marking towards the slots of the stilling well.
• Measurements can be performed through an open full bore ball valve without any
problems.
• After mounting, the housing can be turned 350° in order to facilitate access to the
display and the terminal compartment →  32.
6.5.1 Recommendations for the stilling well

• Metal (no enamel coating; plastic on request).
• Constant diameter.
• Diameter of stilling well not larger than antenna diameter.
• Diameter difference between horn antenna and inner diameter of the stilling well as
small as possible.
• Weld seam as smooth as possible and on the same axis as the slots.
• Slots offset 180° (not 90°).
• Slot width or diameter of holes max. 1/10 of pipe diameter, de-burred. Length and
number do not have any influence on the measurement.
• Select horn antenna as big as possible. For intermedaite sizes (e.g. 180 mm (7 in)) select
next larger antenna and adapt it mechanically (for horn antennas)
• At any transition (i.e. when using a ball valve or mending pipe segments), no gap may be
left exceeding 1 mm (0.04 in).
• The stilling well must be smooth on the inside (average roughness Rz ≤
6.3 μm (248 μin)). Use extruded or parallel welded metal pipe. An extension of the pipe
is possible with welded flanges or pipe sleeves. Flange and pipe have to be properly
aligned at the inside.
• Do not weld through the pipe wall. The inside of the stilling well must remain smooth. In
case of unintentional welding through the pipe, the weld seam and any unevenness on
the inside need to be carefully removed and smoothened. Otherwise, strong interference
echoes will be generated and material build-up will be promoted.
• In the case of smaller nominal widths flanges must be welded to the pipe such that they
allow for a correct orientation (marker aligned toward slots).

ground terminal (11).
In order to ensure electromagnetic compatibility (EMC): Do not only ground the device
via the protective earth conductor of the supply cable. Instead, the functional
grounding must also be connected to the process connection (flange or threaded
connection) or to the external ground terminal.
An easily accessible power switch must be installed in the proximity of the device. The
power switch must be marked as a disconnector for the device (IEC/EN61010).

8.2.2 User roles and related access authorization

The two user roles Operator and Maintenance have different write access to the
parameters if a device-specific access code has been defined. This protects the device
configuration via the local display from unauthorized access →  50.

(for tool operation).
Endress+Hauser 49
8.2.3 Write protection via access code

Using the device-specific access code, the parameters for the measuring device
configuration are write-protected and their values can no longer be changed via local
operation.
Define access code via local display

1. Navigate to: Setup → Advanced setup → Administration → Define access code
→ Define access code
2. Define a max. 4-digit numeric code as an access code.
3. Repeat the same code in Confirm access code parameter.
 The -symbol appears in front of all write-protected parameters.
Define access code via operating tool (e.g. FieldCare)

1. Navigate to: Setup → Advanced setup → Administration → Define access code
2. Define a max. 4-digit numeric code as an access code.
 Write protection is active.
Parameters that can always be changed

The write protection does not include certain parameters that do not affect the
measurement. Despite the defined access code, they can always be modified, even if the
other parameters are locked.
If no key is pressed for 10 minutes in the navigation and editing mode, the device
automatically locks the write-protected parameters. If the user goes from the navigation
and editing mode back to the measured value display mode, the device automatically locks
the write-protected parameters after 60 s.
• If write access is activated via access code, it can be also be deactivated only via the
access code →  51.
• In the "Description of Device Parameters" documents, each write-protected
parameter is identified with the -symbol.
50 Endress+Hauser
8.2.4 Disabling write protection via access code

If the -symbol appears on the local display in front of a parameter, the parameter is
write-protected by a device-specific access code and its value cannot be changed at the
moment using the local display →  50.
The locking of the write access via local operation can be disabled by entering the device-
specific access code.
1. After you press , the input prompt for the access code appears.
2. Enter the access code.
 The -symbol in front of the parameters disappears; all previously write-
protected parameters are now re-enabled.
8.2.5 Deactivation of the write protection via access code

Via local display
1. Navigate to Setup → Advanced setup → Administration → Define access code
→ Define access code
2. Enter 0000.
3. Repeat 0000 in Confirm access code parameter.
 The write protection is deactivated. Parameters can be changed without entering
an access code.
Via operating tool (e.g. FieldCare)

1. Navigate to Setup → Advanced setup → Administration → Define access code
2. Enter 0000.
 The write protection is deactivated. Parameters can be changed without entering
an access code.
Endress+Hauser 51
8.2.6 Write protection via write protection switch

Unlike write protection via a user-specific access code, this allows write access to the entire
operating menu - other than the "Contrast display" parameter - to be locked.
The parameter values are now read only and cannot be edited any more (exception
"Contrast display" parameter):

• Distance unknown
To be selected if the actual distance is unknown. A mapping can not be performed in this
case.
• Distance too small
To be selected if the measured distance is smaller than the actual distance. The device
searches for the next echo and returns to the Confirm distance parameter. The distance
is recalculated and displayed. The comparison must be repeated until the displayed
distance matches the actual distance. After this, the recording of the map can be started
by selecting Distance ok.
• Distance too big 7)
To be selected if the measured distance exceeds the actual distance. The device adjusts
the signal evaluation and returns to the Confirm distance parameter. The distance is
recalculated and displayed. The comparison must be repeated until the displayed
distance matches the actual distance. After this, the recording of the map can be started
by selecting Distance ok.
• Tank empty
To be selected if the tank is completely empty. The device records a mapping covering
the complete measuring range as defined by the Tank/silo height parameter
(→  121). By default, Tank/silo height = Empty calibration.
Take into account that in case of conical outlets, for example, a measurement is only
possible up to the point at which the radar hits the bottom of the tank or silo. If the
Tank empty option is used, Empty calibration (→  107) and Tank/silo height may
not reach below this point as otherwise the empty signal is suppressed.
• Factory map
To be selected if the present mapping curve (if one exists) is to be deleted. The device
returns to the Confirm distance parameter and a new mapping can be recorded.
When operating via the display module, the measured distance is displayed together
with this parameter for reference purposes.
If the teaching procedure with the Distance too small option or the Distance too big
option is quit before the distance has been confirmed, a map is not recorded and the
teaching procedure is reset after 60 s.

Selection • Foam (>5cm/0,16ft)

• Changing DC values
• Small tanks (< 1m/3ft)
Factory setting None
Additional information "Foam (>5cm/0,16ft)" option

This option makes sure that no tank history is used which has been recorded while foam
was present at the surface and thus is no reliable map of the tank property. To achieve
this, the setting Evaluation mode = Long time history is deactivated.
The Foam (>5cm/0,16ft) option is only available for liquid applications (FMR50,
FMR51, FMR52, FMR53, FMR54).
"Changing DC values" option

A tank history which has been recorded with Evaluation mode = Long time history is
only valid for a fixed dielectric constant. The Changing DC values option disables the
setting Evaluation mode = Long time history and thus avoids wrong measuring values in
the case of a changing dielectric constant.
The Changing DC values option is only available for liquid applications (FMR50,
FMR51, FMR52, FMR53, FMR54).
"Small tanks (< 1m/3ft)" option

This option provides a simple possibility to reduce the echo width of the sensor module.
This enables an improved detection of superimposed echos - especially in the near field.
Internally, all paramters related to the echo width are adjusted by this option.
The Small tanks (< 1m/3ft) option is only available for liquid measurements with 26
