  • Page 5: Function And System Design

    Levelflex FMP50 Function and system design Measuring principle General principles The Levelflex is a "downward-looking" measuring system that functions according to the time-of- flight method (ToF). The distance from the reference point to the product surface is measured. High- frequency pulses are injected to a probe and led along the probe. The pulses are reflected by the product surface, received by the electronic evaluation unit and converted into level information.
  • Page 6 Levelflex FMP50 Dielectric constant The dielectric constant (DC) of the medium directly affects the degree of reflection of the high- frequency pulses. In the case of large DC values, such as with water or ammonia, there is strong pulse reflection while, in the case of low DC values, such as with hydrocarbons, pulse reflection is weak.
