!Note!
This operating manual explains the installation and initial start-up for the level transmitter
measuring device. All functions that are required for a typical measuring task are taken into account
here.
In addition, the Micropilot S provides many other functions that are not included in this operating
manual, such as optimising the measuring point and converting the measured values.
An overview of all device functions can be found on page 88.
An extensive description of all device functions can be found in BA217F - "Description of the
instrument functions" on the enclosed CD-ROM.

Safety instructions Micropilot S FMR531 with HART/4...20 mA
6Endress + Hauser
1 Safety instructions
1.1 Designated use
The Micropilot S FMR531 is a compact radar level transmitter for the continuous, contactless
measurement of liquids. The device can also be freely mounted outside closed metal vessels because
of its operating frequency of about 6 GHz and a maximum radiated pulsed energy of 1mW (average
power output 1 μW). Operation is completely harmless to humans and animals.
1.2 Installation, commissioning and operation
The Micropilot S has been designed to operate safely in accordance with current technical, safety
and EU standards. If installed incorrectly or used for applications for which it is not intended,
however, it is possible that application-related dangers may arise, e.g. product overflow due to
incorrect installation or calibration. For this reason, the instrument must be installed, connected,
operated and maintained according to the instructions in this manual: personnel must be authorised
and suitably qualified. The manual must have been read and understood, and the instructions
followed. Modifications and repairs to the device are permissible only when they are expressly
approved in the manual.
1.3 Operational safety
Hazardous areas
Measuring systems for use in hazardous environments are accompanied by separate "Ex
documentation", which is an integral part of this Operating Manual. Strict compliance with the
installation instructions and ratings as stated in this supplementary documentation is mandatory.
• Ensure that all personnel are suitably qualified.
• Observe the specifications in the certificate as well as national and local regulations.
FCC-approval
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any
interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
"Caution!
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the part responsible for compliance could void
the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

1.4 Notes on safety conventions and symbols
In order to highlight safety-relevant or alternative operating procedures in the manual, the following
conventions have been used, each indicated by a corresponding symbol in the margin.
Safety conventions
#Warning!
A warning highlights actions or procedures which, if not performed correctly, will lead to personal
injury, a safety hazard or destruction of the instrument
"Caution!
Caution highlights actions or procedures which, if not performed correctly, may lead to personal
injury or incorrect functioning of the instrument
!Note!
A note highlights actions or procedures which, if not performed correctly, may indirectly affect
operation or may lead to an instrument response which is not planned
Explosion protection
0Device certified for use in explosion hazardous area
If the device has this symbol embossed on its name plate it can be installed in an explosion hazardous
area
-Explosion hazardous area
Symbol used in drawings to indicate explosion hazardous areas. Devices located in and wiring
entering areas with the designation “explosion hazardous areas” must conform with the stated type
of protection.
.Safe area (non-explosion hazardous area)
Symbol used in drawings to indicate, if necessary, non-explosion hazardous areas. Devices located in
safe areas still require a certificate if their outputs run into explosion hazardous areas
Electrical symbols
%Direct voltage
A terminal to which or from which a direct current or voltage may be applied or supplied
&Alternating voltage
A terminal to which or from which an alternating (sine-wave) current or voltage may be applied or
supplied
)Grounded terminal
A grounded terminal, which as far as the operator is concerned, is already grounded by means of an
earth grounding system
*Protective grounding (earth) terminal
A terminal which must be connected to earth ground prior to making any other connection to the
equipment
+Equipotential connection (earth bonding)
A connection made to the plant grounding system which may be of type e.g. neutral star or
equipotential line according to national or company practice
Temperature resistance of the connection cables
States, that the connection cables must be resistant to a temperature of at least 85 °C.
