FMR532 Radar measurement Micropilot

Field of application

The Micropilot FMR532 is used for custody transfer and inventory control applications with NMi- and PTB-approvals. It meets the relevant requirements according to OIML R85 and API 3.1B. The FMR532 free space radar with planar antenna is specifically suited for stilling well applications. Micropilot FMR532 offers cost-effective and simple installation via 4-wire cable with HART and 24 V DC intrinsically safe power supply.

With planar antenna particularly suited for stilling well applications with ranges
up to 38m (124ft).
