Brand: Endress+HauserMicropilot FMR63B 80 GHz Radar Sensor
Brand: Endress+Hauser

Micropilot FMR63B is part of the new generation of 80 GHz radar sensors. Thanks to its complete hygienic design it is suitable for continuous non-contact level measurement in hygienic applications. Wizards guide users through commissioning, proof tests and verification of the devices and thus guarantee a simple operation. Heartbeat Technology offers verification and monitoring functions to identify anomalies or checking the measurement accuracy.
The Micropilot FMR63B is for free space applications up to 80m and offers high beam focusing for vessels with many internal fittings.
