Radar measurement Micropilot FMR60

Field of Application :

The Micropilot FMR60 is the first 80GHz radar developed according to the international functional safety standard IEC 61508. Designed for continuous, non-contact level measurement, it ensures maximum reliability due to its drip-off antenna, optimized algorithms, and narrow beam angle. This radar is ideal for measuring liquids, pastes, and slurries, with unaffected performance even in challenging conditions such as changing media, temperature variations, gas blankets, and vapors.
