Function and system design

Measuring principle

2

The Micropilot M is a top mounted measuring system, operating on the time-of-flightmethod. It measures the distance from the reference point (process connection) tothe product surface. Radar impulses are emitted by an antenna, reflected off theproduct surface and are received by the antenna.

InputA microprocessor evaluates the signal and identifies the level echo created by thereflection of the radar impulse at the product surface. The unambiguous signalidentification is accomplished by our PulseMaster® software algorithms that arebased on many years of experience with time-of-flight technology. The mm accuracyof the Micropilot M could be achieved with the patented algorithms of thePhaseMaster® software.The distance D to the product surface is proportional to the travel time t of theimpulse:

D = c x t/2, with c being the speed of lightBased on the known empty distance E, the level L is calculated:

L = E - D

Refer to the figure above for the reference point for “E”.The Micropilot M is equipped with functions to suppress interference echoes (tankmapping). The user can activate these functions which ensure that interferenceechoes (i.e. from edges and weld seams) are not interpreted as level echoes.

OutputThe Micropilot M is commissioned by entering an empty distance E (= zero), a fulldistance F (= span), and an application parameter. The application parameterautomatically adapts the instrument to the measuring conditions. The data points “E”and “F” correspond to 4 mA and 20 mA for instruments with current output. 0% to100% is shown for digital outputs and the display module.A linearization with maximum of 32 points, based on a table entered either manuallyor semi-automatically, can be activated locally or remotely. This function provides ameasurement in engineering units and a linear output signal for spheres, horizontalcylindrical tanks, and vessels with conical outlets.

Vendor Managed Inventory

By using Fieldgates to interrogate tank or silo levels remotely, suppliers of rawmaterials can provide their regular customers with information about the currentsupplies at any time and, for example, account for them in their own productionplanning. For their part, the Fieldgates monitor the configured level limits and, ifrequired, automatically activate the next supply. The spectrum of options range froma simple purchasing requisition via e-mail to fully automatic order administration bycoupling XML data into the planning systems on both sides.

Remote maintenance of measuring equipment

Fieldgates not only transfer the current measured values, they also alert the respon-sible standby personnel, if required, via e-mail or SMS. In the event of an alarm, oralso when performing routine checks, service technicians can diagnose andconfigure connected HART devices remotely. All that is required is the correspondingHART operating software (e.g. ToF Tool, FieldCare, Commuwin II, etc.) for theconnected device. Fieldgate passes on the information transparently, so that alloptions for the respective operating software are available remotely. Some on-siteservice operations can be avoided by using remote diagnosis and remote configura-tion and all others can at least be better planned and prepared.

Input

Measured variable The measured variable is the distance between a reference point (refer to the figureon page 2) and a reflective surface (i.e. liquid surface). The level is calculated basedon the tank height entered and can be converted into other units (volume, mass) bymeans of linearization.

The achievable measuring range depends on the size of the antenna, the reflectivityof the medium, the mounting location, and any interference reflections.The following tables describe the groups of media as well as the achievable measur-ing range as a function of the application. If the dielectric constant of a medium isunknown, it is recommended to assume media group B to ensure reliable measure-ment.

Measuring conditions NOTE!Please use FMR 230 or FMR 231 for boiling surfaces or in case of a tendency forfoaming.In case of heavy steam development or condensate, the maximum measuringrange of the FMR 240/244/245 may decrease depending on the density, tempera-ture and composition of the steam (-> please use FMR 230 or FMR 231). Pleaseuse the FMR 230 in a stilling well for Ammonia NH3 measurement.• The measuring range begins where the beam hits the tank bottom. Particularly

with dish bottoms or conical outlets. The level cannot be detected below thatpoint.

• For wave guide antennas, the end of the pipe is the beginning of the measuringrange.

• In case of media with a low dielectric constant (groups A and B), the tank bottomcan be visible through the medium at low levels. In order to guarantee therequired accuracy in these cases, it is recommended to position the zero-pointat a distance (C) above the tank bottom.

• In principle, it is possible to measure up to the tip of the antenna with theFMR 230/231/240. However, due to possible corrosion and build-up, themaximum span should not be any closer than (A) to the tip of the antenna. ForFMR 244/245, the end of the measuring range should not be closer than (A) tothe tip of the antenna, especially when there is condensate.

• The smallest possible measuring range (B) depends on the antenna version.• The tank diameter should be greater than (D) listed in the table below, the tank

height at least (H).• Depending on its consistency, foam can either absorb microwaves or reflect them

off the foam surface. Measurement is possible under certain conditions, consultfactory.

FAR 10 antenna extension• The antenna extension has to be

selected so that the horn extendsbelow the nozzle.

• If the horn diameter is greater thanthe width of the nozzle, the antennaincluding the extension needs to bemounted from inside the vessel. Thebolts are tightened from outside, withthe instrument lifted up. The extensionhas to be selected such that theinstrument can be lifted by at least4” (100 mm).

Special extensions• If the antenna has to be mounted on

a sloping or vertical vessel wall, anextension with a 45° respectively 90°bend is available.

• The smallest possible radius R for thebend is 12” (300 mm).

Recommendations for the stilling wellRefer to page 20 for stilling well construction examples.• Metal stilling well (no enamel coating, plastic on request).• Stilling well must have a constant diameter.• Welding seam should be as smooth as possible and on the same axis as the slots.• Slots must be offset at 180°, not 90°.• Slot width maximum 1/10 of pipe diameter. The length and number of slots does

not effect the measurement.• Select the horn antenna as large as possible. For intermediate sizes (i.e. 7”)

select the next larger antenna and adapt it mechanically (FMR 230/240 only).• At any transition (i.e. when using a ball valve or mending pipe segments) the gap

should be < 0.04” (1 mm).• The stilling well must be smooth on the inside (average roughness Rz ≤ 30µin).

Use extruded or parallel welded stainless steel pipe. An extension of the pipe ispossible with welded flanges or pipe sleeves. Flange and pipe have to be alignedon the inside.(con’t. page 20)

The antenna can become contaminated depending on the application. The emissionand reception of microwaves can eventually be hindered. The degree of contamina-tion leading to an error depends on the medium and the reflectivity, mainly deter-mined by the dielectric constant εr. If the medium tends to cause contamination anddeposits, cleaning on a regular basis is recommended. Care has to taken not todamage the antenna in the process of mechanical or hose-down cleaning. Thematerial compatibility has to be considered if cleaning agents are used. The maxi-mum permitted temperature at the flange should not be exceeded.
