Levelflex FMP51 Guided Wave Radar
Part number FMP51-AABCAAJBAAAA
Guided-wave radar level transmitter for liquids, rod or rope probe up to 45 m, independent of density, foam and vapour, HART, SIL2/3.
- CE
- SIL2
- ATEX
- IECEx
- EAC

Overview
Guided-wave radar sends the pulse along a probe instead of through free space, which makes the Levelflex FMP51 reliable in narrow nozzles, bypass chambers, tanks with heavy vapour and where foam would absorb a free-space signal. It also measures oil/water interface in separators. Multi-echo tracking and end-of-probe detection handle low-dielectric media. The code shown is a typical configuration with rope probe and HART output; the full ordering code sets probe type and length, process connection and approvals.
