Technical Characteristics and System Intelligence
-
Multi-Sensor Management: A single FMU95 can monitor up to 10 measurement points simultaneously. This is particularly useful for measuring different silos or calculating the average level in very large vessels where a single sensor might not provide an accurate profile.
-
Advanced Calculation Functions: The transmitter can be programmed to calculate average values, sums, or differences between sensors. For example, in a large grain terminal, it can sum the total volume across several silos or average the level across a large stockpile.
-
Sophisticated Diagnostic Display: The unit features a large 6-line plain text display that supports 15 languages. It allows for detailed visualization of envelope curves, which is critical for suppressing false echoes in complex industrial environments.
-
Seamless Digital Integration: With PROFIBUS DP support, the FMU95 can transmit up to 20 measured values back to the PLC or DCS, providing comprehensive data on level, temperature, and device status over a single digital bus.
-
Intelligent Temperature Correction: Accuracy is maintained through Time-of-Flight correction, utilizing either the integrated temperature sensors in the FDU heads or external sensors for even higher precision in environments with extreme gradients.
-
FieldCare Compatibility: The device is fully supported by the FieldCare operating program, which simplifies commissioning, detailed echo analysis, and the documentation of each measuring point.

Aplikasi Utama
-
Multiple Silo Monitoring: Centralized level measurement for groups of small to medium-sized silos in the food or chemical industry.
-
Large Stockpiles: Using multiple sensors to calculate the average height and total volume of ore, coal, or woodchip piles.
-
Wastewater Treatment Hubs: Monitoring several pump stations or settling tanks from a single control cabinet located in a safe zone.
-
Differential Level Measurement: Calculating the level difference before and after mechanical rakes or screens in water intake channels to detect clogs.
-
Inventory Management: Summing the volumes of multiple liquid storage tanks to provide a “total plant inventory” value.
