It is widely accepted that guided radar provides the most accurate and reliable level measurement in many applications, however, the cost of the equipment has often been restrictive. Endress+Hauser’s new Levelflex range introduces entry level options for both liquids and solids.
While some low cost guided radar instruments have restrictions on the type of liquids that can be measured, the Levelflex FMP50 is suitable for most liquid media. In fact, the instrument has the same wide ranging functionality as the other members of Endress+Hauser’s Levelflex family, including an integrated data memory and availability for system integration with HART 4-20 mA analogue and Profibus. Cost savings are offered through a simplification of the process connection options and by utilising a lower cost housing, making the FMP50 an economically attractive basic device for supply and storage applications, as well as utility metering processes.
For solids measurement, users seeking reliable level readings in dusty environments, high and narrow silos or in vessels with obstacles, now have a cost-effective option in the Levelflex FMP56. Both instruments can be integrated into asset management systems and hold ATEX, IEC Ex, FM and CSA approvals for level monitoring up to SIL2.
