2.4General safety instructions
This is a high-tech instrument requiring the strict observance of
standard regulations and guidelines.The user must take note of the
safety instructions in this operating instructions manual,the country-
specific installation standards as well as all prevailing safety
regulations and accident prevention rules.
Depending on the model,the emitting frequencies of all radar sensors
are either in the Cor Kband range.The low transmitting power lies far
below the internationally permitted limit values.When the instrument is
used correctly,it presents no danger to human health.It may be
operated without restriction outside of closed metallic vessels.

2.8SIL conformity
LEVEL TRANSMITTER 8137 fulfills the requirements for functional
safety according to IEC 61508/IEC 61511.You can find further
information in the Safety Manual "LEVEL TRANSMITTER 813X-
4…20 mA/HART".
2.9FCC/IC conformity (only for USA/Canada)
LEVEL TRANSMITTER 8137 with all antenna versions is FCC/IC
approved.
Modifications not expressly approved by Bürkert will lead to expiry of
the operating licence according to FCC/IC.
LEVEL TRANSMITTER 8137 is in conformity with part 15 of the FCC
directives and fulfills the RSS-210 regulations.Note the corresponding
regulations for operation:
lThe instrument must not cause any interfering emissions
lThe device must be insensitive to immissions,including those that
may cause undesired operating conditions.
The instrument is designed for operation with an antenna according to
chapter "Dimensions"of this operating instructions manual,or without
antenna,with a max.amplification of 33 dB.The instrument must not
be operated with antennas not listed therein or those having an
amplification of more than 33 dB.The required antenna impedance is
50 Ω.
2.10 Safety instructions for Ex areas
Please note the Ex-specific safety information for installation and
operation in Ex areas.These safety instructions are part of the
operating instructions manual and come with the Ex-approved
instruments.

3.2Principle of operation
LEVEL TRANSMITTER 8137 is a radar sensor in K-band (emitting
frequency approx.26 GHz)for continuous level measurement.
Asuitable version of LEVEL TRANSMITTER 8137 is available for each
area of application:
The version with "thread and horn antenna with ø40 mm (1.575 in)"
is particularly suitable for small tanks and process vessels for
measurement of virtually all products.
The version with "Flange and horn antenna with ø48 …95 mm
(1.89 …3.74 in)"is particularly suitable for storage tanks and process
vessels,for measurement of products such as solvents,hydrocarbons
and fuels under most difficult process conditions.
The version with "Parabolic antenna"is particularly suitable for
precise measurement of products with small dielectric figure.
The antenna of the radar sensor emits short radar pulses with a
duration of approx.1ns.These pulses are reflected by the product
and received by the antenna as echoes.The running time of the radar
pulses from emission to reception is proportional to the distance and
hence to the level.The determined level is converted into an
appropriate output signal and outputted as measured value.
Two-wire electronics 4…20 mA/HART for power supply and
measured value transmission over the same cable.
The supply voltage range can differ depending on the instrument
version.
The data for power supply are specified in chapter "Technical data".
The backlight of the indicating and adjustment module is powered by
the sensor.Prerequisite is a certain level of supply voltage.
The data for power supply are specified in chapter "Technical data".
3.3Operation
LEVEL TRANSMITTER 8137 can be adjusted with different adjust-
ment media:
lwith indicating and adjustment module
lwith the suitable Bürkert DTM in conjunction with an adjustment
software according to the FDT/DTM standard,e.g.PACTware and
PC
lwith manufacturer-specific adjustment programs AMS™or PDM

The entered parameters are generally saved in LEVEL TRANS-
MITTER 8137,optionally also in the indicating/adjustment module.
3.4Packaging,transport and storage
Your instrument was protected by packaging during transport.Its
capacity to handle normal loads during transport is assured by a test
