1.2 Device description
The FMCW radar level meter is designed to measure the distance, level, mass, volume, flow rate
and reflection of liquids, pastes and slurries. Radar level transmitters use an antenna to guide a
signal to the surface of the measured product. Radar is a non-contact technology. It is
particularly suitable for the level measurement of corrosive and viscous products. For more data
about the measuring principle, refer to the handbook.
1.3 Electronic revision
"Electronic revision" agrees with NAMUR NE 53. It is a number used to record the revision status
of the hardware and embedded software (firmware) in the device. It gives data on the type of
changes made and the effect that changes have on compatibility. The table that follows records
the changes for devices that have the FOUNDATION™ fieldbus option.
Data about the electronic revision is shown in menu 1.1.5 ELECTRO.REV.
