Product Overview
E+H FMR30B 80GHz Radar Level Transmitter
FMR30B-AABAKABMXQ0WEE3+AK
The FMR30B 80GHz radar level transmitter delivers highly accurate, non-contact continuous level measurement for liquids and bulk solids across water treatment, chemical processing, and industrial applications. Powered by advanced 80 GHz FMCW high-frequency radar technology, it provides a narrow beam angle to bypass internal tank obstructions, ensuring reliable readings even under turbulent surface conditions or changing process temperatures. With its compact IP66/IP68 rated housing, standard 4-20mA HART output, and effortless Bluetooth wireless commissioning, the FMR30B offers a durable, maintenance-free solution designed for seamless system integration and long-term operational stability.
The FMR30B 80GHz Radar Level Transmitter represents an advanced engineering solution for precise, non-contact process level monitoring in modern industrial environments. Utilizing high-frequency 80 GHz FMCW radar technology, this compact level transmitter generates an exceptionally focused beam angle that virtually eliminates signal interference caused by internal vessel structures, heating coils, agitators, or narrow mounting nozzles. Designed for demanding applications in water and wastewater management, chemical storage, food processing utilities, and general manufacturing, the FMR30B maintains unwavering accuracy and measurement stability regardless of media density, temperature fluctuations, vacuum, or heavy vapors.
Its hermetically sealed PVDF antenna structure and robust IP66/IP68 housing guarantee superior resistance against corrosive atmospheres and harsh outdoor weather conditions. Furthermore, the integrated Bluetooth wireless interface enables safe, fast, and intuitive parameter setup, diagnostics, and real-time echo curve inspection via standard mobile devices, drastically reducing installation time and field maintenance costs for plant operators and automation system integrators worldwide.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: Why choose an 80GHz radar level transmitter over 26GHz or ultrasonic level sensors?
A: An 80GHz radar transmitter features a significantly narrower beam angle and superior signal focusing, which prevents false reflections from tank walls, internal ladders, or agitators. Unlike ultrasonic sensors, 80GHz radar signals propagate accurately through temperature stratification, steam, dust, and pressure variations without signal attenuation.
Q2: Can the FMR30B be integrated into existing PLC or DCS automation systems?
A: Yes. The FMR30B supports industry-standard 2-wire 4-20mA HART output signals, making it plug-and-play compatible with all major PLC, DCS, and SCADA control systems from manufacturers such as Siemens, Allen-Bradley, Schneider Electric, and Honeywell.
Q3: How is the device calibrated and configured on-site?
A: You can easily configure, calibrate, and diagnose the FMR30B wirelessly via Bluetooth using a smartphone or tablet app from up to 10 meters away, or through conventional handheld HART communicators and field management devices.
Q4: Do you offer OEM/ODM customization and bulk supply options for global buyers?
A: As an experienced field instrument manufacturer, we provide comprehensive OEM and ODM services, including customized enclosure branding, specialized process connection threads or flanges, and competitive wholesale pricing for global distributors and system integrators.
