5 Tank installation position

• If possible install the sensor so that its lower edge projects into the vessel.
• Do not install the sensor in the middle of the tank (2). We recommend leaving a distance
(1) between the sensor and the tank wall measuring 1/6 of the tank diameter.
Recommended distance A wall - nozzle outer edge: ~ 1/6 of the tank diameter D.
However, the device must not under any circumstances be mounted closer than
15 cm (5.91 in) to the tank wall.
• Avoid measurements through the filling curtain (3).
• Avoid equipment (4) such as limit switches, temperature sensors, baffles, heating coils
etc.
• Multiple devices can be operated in one tank without influencing each other.
• No signals are analyzed within the Blocking distance. It can therefore be used to
suppress interference signals (e.g. the effects of condensate) close to the antenna.
By default an automatic Blocking distance of at least 0.1 m (0.33 ft) is preset. However it
can be manually overwritten (even 0 m (0 ft) is allowed.
Automatic calculation:
Blocking distance = Empty calibration - Full calibration - 0.2 m (0.656 ft).
The Blocking distance parameter is recalculated according to this formula every time a
new value is entered into the Empty calibration parameter or Full calibration
parameter.
If this calculation results in a value <0.1 m (0.33 ft), the blocking distance of
0.1 m (0.33 ft) is used instead.

8.1.4 Alignment
• Align the antenna vertically to the product surface.
• Align the eyelet with the mounting eye as well as possible towards the tank wall.

7 Relationship between beam angle α, distance D and beamwidth diameter W

The beam angle is defined as the angle α at which the power density of the radar waves
reaches half the value of the maximum power density (3dB width). Microwaves are also
emitted outside the signal beam and can be reflected off interfering installations.
Beam diameter W as a function of beam angle α and measuring distance D.

8.1.6 Measurement in plastic vessels


If the outer wall of the vessel is made of a non-conductive material (e.g. GFR) microwaves
can also be reflected off interfering installations outside of the vessel (e.g. metallic
pipes (1), ladders (2), grates (3), ...). Therefore there should be no such interfering
installations in the signal beam. For more information, please contact Endress+Hauser.

8.1.8 Free-field measurement with flooding protection tube


The flooding protection tube guarantees a definitive analysis of the maximum level even in
the event that the sensor is completely flooded.
In free-field installations and / or in applications where there is a risk of flooding, it is
recommended to use a flooding protection tube

The flooding protection tube is available as an accessory. →  34

The tube is screwed directly onto the sensor and seals off the system by means of an O-
ring (2) making it air-tight. In the event of flooding, the air pocket (1) that develops in the
tube ensures a definitive detection of the maximum level (4) directly at the end of the
tube. Due to the fact that the Blocking distance (3) is inside the tube, multiple echoes are
not analyzed.

Configuring the blocking distance when using the flooding protection tube
‣ Navigate to: Main menu → Setup → Advanced setup → Blocking distance
 Enter 100 mm (4 in).

In combination Full calibration with Empty calibration and given 4 to 20 mA output signal,
the level value for 4 mA (=Empty) and the level value for 20 mA (=Full) can be determined
directly in the unit of length used.
The Full calibration can be used to calculate a standardized signal proportionate to the
level e.g. 0 to 100 % level. The two basic values of 0 % and 100 % can in turn be assigned
directly to the analog output values 4 mA and 20 mA.

Measuring principle
The Micropilot is a "downward-looking" measuring system, which functions according to the time-of-
flight (ToF) method. It measures the distance from the reference point R to the product surface.
Radar pulses are emitted by an antenna, reflected off the product surface and received again by the
radar system.

F Full calibration (= span)
D Measured distance
L Level (L = E - D)
Q Flow rate at measuring weirs or channels (calculated from the level using linearization)
R Reference point

Input The reflected radar pulses are received by the antenna and transmitted to the electronics. A
microprocessor evaluates the signals and identifies the level echo caused by the reflection of the
radar pulses at the product surface. This clear signal detection system benefits from over 30 years'
experience with time-of-flight procedures.
The distance D to the product surface is proportional to the time of flight t of the pulse:
D = c · t/2,
where c is the speed of light.
Based on the known empty distance E, the level L is calculated:
L=E–D

Output The Micropilot is calibrated by entering the empty distance E (= zero point) and the full distance F (=
span).
• Current output: 4 to 20 mA
• Digital output (SmartBlue): 0 to 5 m (0 to 16 ft) or 0 to 8 m (0 to 26.25 ft) in connection with
mounted "flooding protection tube" accessory.

7 Installation position on a vessel

• If possible install the sensor so that its lower edge projects into the vessel.
• Recommended distance A wall - nozzle outer edge: ~ ¹⁄₆ of the vessel diameter D. Under no
circumstances should the device be mounted closer than 15 cm (5.91 in) to the vessel wall.
• Do not install the sensor in the middle of the vessel.
• Avoid measurements through the filling curtain.
• Avoid equipment such as limit switches, temperature sensors, baffles, heating coils etc.
• No signals are evaluated within the Blocking distance (BD). It can therefore be used to suppress
interference signals (e.g. the effects of condensate) in the vicinity of the antenna.
An automatic Blocking distance of at least 0.1 m (0.33 ft) is configured as standard. However, this
can be overwritten manually (0 m (0 ft) is also permitted).
Automatic calculation:
Blocking distance = Empty calibration - Full calibration - 0.2 m (0.656 ft).
Each time a new entry is made in the Empty calibration parameter or Full calibration parameter,
the Blocking distance parameter is recalculated automatically using this formula.
If the result of the calculation is a value < 0.1 m (0.33 ft), the Blocking distance of 0.1 m (0.33 ft)
will continue to be used.

Nozzle mounting
The antenna should project out of the nozzle for optimum measurement. The interior of the nozzle
must be smooth and may not contain any edges or welded joints. The edge of the nozzle should be
rounded if possible.

The tube is screwed directly onto the sensor and seals off the system by means of an O-ring making
it air-tight. In the event of flooding, the air pocket that forms in the tube ensures the measurement
of the maximum level at the end of the tube. Due to the fact that the Blocking distance is inside the
tube, multiple echoes are not analyzed.
