For processes operating above 400°C (752°F) or 300 bar (4350 psi), non-invasive gamma instrumentation is often the only viable method for point or continuous level measurement. It can also be used for interface, density, concentration and flow measurement.
As a leading supplier of gamma measurement systems, Endress+Hauser addressed customer issues and developed the new Gammapilot FMG50 as the first loop-powered transmitter of its kind. This alone brings energy savings of over 95% with regard to its 4-wire predecessors. A further improvement is the ability to operate at 80°C (176°F), reducing the need for expensive water cooling.
Designed for use in the oil & gas, chemical, mineral extraction and metal industries, Gammapilot FMG50 has been developed according to IEC 61508 for SIL2 and SIL3 applications. It also has German WHG certification for use in water-overfill applications.
Supporting HART 7, the transmitter is equipped with Heartbeat Technology, ensuring that regular proof testing can be done automatically. For maintenance, NAMUR 107 diagnostics sorts alerts into four categories: maintenance required, out of specification, function check and failure. Cause and remedy information ensures that any instrument issues can be solved quickly and easily.
