Micropilot M
Function and system design

Measuring principle The Micropilot is a "downward-looking" measuring system, operating based on the time-of-flight method. It
measures the distance from the reference point (process connection) to the product surface. Radar impulses are
emitted by an antenna, reflected off the product surface and received again by the radar system.

L00-FMR2xxxx-15-00-00-en-001
Input
The reflected radar impulses are received by the antenna and transmitted into the electronics. A microprocessor
evaluates the signal and identifies the level echo caused by the reflection of the radar impulse at the product
surface. The unambiguous signal identification is accomplished by the PulseMaster® eXact software, based on
many years of experience with time-of-flight technology.
The mm-accuracy of the Micropilot S could be achieved with the patented algorithms of the PhaseMaster
software.
The distance D to the product surface is proportional to the time of flight t of the impulse:
D = c · t/2,
with c being the speed of light.
Based on the known empty distance E, the level L is calculated:
L=E–D
Refer to the above figure for the reference point for "E".
The Micropilot is equipped with functions to suppress interference echoes. The user can activate these
functions. They ensure that interference echoes (i.e. from edges and weld seams) are not interpreted as level
echo.
Endress+Hauser 3
Micropilot M
Output
The Micropilot is commissioned by entering an empty distance E (=zero), a full distance F (=span) and an
application parameter. The application parameter automatically adapts the instrument to the process
conditions. The data points “E” and “F” correspond with 4mA and 20mA for instruments with current output.
They correspond with 0 % and 100 % for digital outputs and the display module.
A linearization with a maximum of 32 points, based on a table entered either manually or semi-automatically,
can be activated locally or remotely. This function provides a measurement in engineering units and a linear
output signal for spheres, horizontal cylindrical tanks and vessels with conical outlet.
Equipment architecture Stand-alone

The Micropilot M can be used for measurement in a stilling well / bypass as well as in free space.
The instrument provides a 4 to 20 mA output with HART protocol, or PROFIBUS PA respectively
FOUNDATION Fieldbus communication.
4 to 20 mA output with HART protocol.

Integrated in tank gauging system

The Endress+Hauser Tank Side Monitor NRF590 provides integrated communications for sites with multiple
tanks, each with one or more sensors on the tank, such as radar, spot or average temperature, capacitive probe
for water detection and/or pressure sensors. Multiple protocols out of the Tank Side Monitor guarantee
connectivity to nearly any of the existing industry standard tank gauging protocols. Optional connectivity of
analog 4 to 20 mA sensors, digital I/O and analog output simplify full tank sensor integration. Use of the proven
concept of the intrinsically safe HART bus for all on-tank sensors yields extremely low wiring costs, while at
the same time providing maximum safety, reliability and data availability.

System integration via Fieldgate
Vendor Managed Inventory

By using Fieldgates to interrogate tank or silo levels remotely, suppliers of raw materials can provide their
regular customers with information about the current supplies at any time and, for example, account for them
in their own production planning. For their part, the Fieldgates monitor the configured level limits and, if
required, automatically activate the next supply. The spectrum of options here ranges from a simple purchasing
requisition via e-mail through to fully automatic order administration by coupling XML data into the planning
systems on both sides.
Remote maintenance of measuring equipment

Fieldgates not only transfer the current measured values, they also alert the responsible standby personnel, if
required, via e-mail or SMS. In the event of an alarm or also when performing routine checks, service
technicians can diagnose and configure connected HART devices remotely. All that is required for this is the
corresponding HART operating software (e.g. ToF Tool - FieldTool Package, FieldCare, ...) for the connected
device. Fieldgate passes on the information transparently, so that all options for the respective operating
software are available remotely. Some on-site service operations can be avoided by using remote diagnosis and
remote configuration and all others can at least be better planned and prepared.

Micropilot M
Input
Measured variable The measured variable is the distance between a reference point (refer to fig. on page 2) and a reflective surface
(i.e. medium surface).
The level is calculated based on the tank height entered.The level can be converted into other units (volume,
mass) by means of a linearization (32 points).
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.
The maximum configurable range is:
• 65 ft (20 m) for Micropilot M FMR23x,
• 65 ft (20 m) for Micropilot M FMR24x,
– 131 ft (40 m) for Micropilot M FMR24x with additional option D (E), see "ordering information",
– 229 ft (70 m) for Micropilot M FMR24x with additional option F (G), see "ordering information",
• 229 ft (70 m) for Micropilot M FMR250 (further information, see TI390F/24/ae).
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.

Measuring conditions Note!

• In case of boiling surfaces, bubbling or tendency for foaming, use FMR230 or FMR231. Depending on
its consistence, foam can either absorb microwaves or reflect them off the foam surface. Measurement is pos-
sible under certain conditions. For FMR240/244/245, the additional option D, F (E, G) recommended (see
ordering information).
• In case of heavy steam development or condensate the max. measuring range of FMR240 may decrease
depending on density, temperature and composition of the steam → use FMR230 or FMR231.
• For the measurement of absorbing gases such as ammonia NH3 or some fluorocarbons 1)), please use
FMR230 in a stilling well.
1) Affected compounds are e.g. R134a, R227, Dymel 152a.

• 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.
• In case of media with a low dielectric constant (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 FMR230/231/240. However, due to
considerations regarding corrosion and build-up, the end of the measuring range should not be chosen any
closer than A (see Fig.) to the tip of the antenna.
For FMR244/245, the end of measuring range should not be chosen closer than A (see Fig.) to the tip of
the antenna, especially if there is development of condensate.
• The smallest possible measuring range B depends on the antenna version (see Fig.).
• The tank diameter should be greater than D (see Fig.), the tank height at least H (see Fig.).

Effect of gas phase High pressures reduce the propagation velocity of the measuring signals in the gas/vapor above the fluid. This
effect depends on the gas/vapor and is particularly large for low temperatures. This results in a measuring error
that gets larger as the distance increases between the device zero point (flange) and product surface. The
following table illustrates this measured error for a few typical gases/vapors (with regard to the distance; a
positive value means that too large a distance is being measured):

Installation instructions Orientation
• Recommended distance (1) wall – outer edge of 2 3 4
nozzle: ~1/6 of tank diameter. Nevertheless the
device should not be installed closer than 30 cm/
12“ (FMR230/231) resp. 15 cm/6“ (FMR240/
244/245) to the tankwall.
• Not in the center (3), interference can cause signal
loss. 1
• 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 (see
Accessories on Page 63).
L00-FMR2xxxx-17-00-00-xx-001
Tank installations
• Avoid any installations (1), like limit switches,
temperature sensors, etc., inside the signal beam
(see Beam angle on Page 22).
• Symmetrical installations (2), i.e. vacuum rings,
heating coils, baffles, etc., can also interfere with
the measurement.
Optimization options
• Antenna size: the bigger the antenna, the smaller 1
a
the beam angle, the less interference echoes.
• Mapping: the measurement can be optimized by
means of electronic suppression of interference
echoes.
• Antenna alignment: refer to "optimum mounting
position"
• Stilling well: a stilling well can always be used to 2
avoid interference.
• Metallic screens (3) mounted at a slope spread the
radar signals and can, therefore, reduce
interference echoes.
Please contact Endress+Hauser for further
information.

Measurement in a plastic tank

If the outer wall of the tank 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.

Recommendations for the stilling well
• Metal (no enamel coating, plastic on request).
• Constant diameter.
• Diameter of stilling well not larger than antenna diameter.
• Weld seam as smooth as possible and on the same axis as the slots.
• Slots offset 180° (not 90°).
• Slot width respectively 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 intermediate sizes (i.e. 180 mm/7.1") select next larger antenna
and adapt it mechanically (FMR230/FMR240 only).
• At any transition (i.e. when using a ball valve or mending pipe segments), no gap may be created exceeding
1 mm (0.04").
• The stilling well must be smooth on the inside (average roughness Rz ≤ 6.3 µm). Use extruded or parallel
welded stainless steel 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.
• Particularly on smaller nominal widths it needs to be observed that flanges are welded to the pipe such that
they allow for a correct orientation (marker aligned toward slots).

Cleaning of the antenna The antenna can get contaminated, depending on the application. The emission and reception of microwaves
can thus eventually be hindered. The degree of contamination leading to an error depends on the medium and
the reflectivity, mainly determined by the dielectric constant εr. If the medium tends to cause contamination
and deposits, cleaning on a regular basis is recommended. Care has to be taken not to damage the antenna in
the process of a mechanical or hose-down cleaning (eventually connection for cleaning liquid). The material
compatibility has to be considered if cleaning agents are used!
The maximum permitted temperature at the flange should not be exceeded.
Electromagnetic compatibility • Interference Emission to EN 61326, Electrical Equipment Class B

• Interference Immunity to EN 61326, Annex A (Industrial) and NAMUR Recommendation NE 21 (EMC)
• A standard installation cable is sufficient if only the analog signal is used. Use a shielded cable when working
with a superimposed communications signal (HART).
