2 Basic safety instructions
2�1 Requirements for the personnel
The personnel must fulll the following requirements to carry out the necessary tasks,
e. g., commissioning and maintenance:
‣ Trained, qualied specialists must have a relevant qualication for the specic function
and task
‣Are authorized by the plant owner/operator
‣Are familiar with federal/national regulations
‣Must have read and understood the instructions in the manual and supplementary
documentation
‣Follow instructions and comply with conditions
2�2 Designated use
Use the microwave barrier only for point level detection and counting and control purpo-
ses. Improper use can pose hazards. Ensure that the measuring device is free of defects
while it is in operation.
• Use the measuring device only for media to which the process-wetted materials have an
adequate level of resistance
• Do not exceed or drop below the limit values for the measuring device
 TI00443F
Incorrect use
The manufacturer is not liable for damage caused by improper or non-designated use.
Clarication of borderline cases:
• In the case of special uids and media used for cleaning, Endress+Hauser is glad to
provide assistance in verifying the corrosion resistance of wetted materials, but does not
accept any warranty or liability.

Product description
Residual risks
The electronics housing and the modules installed in it can heat up to 80°C (176°F) du-
ring operation due to heat input from the process as well as the power dissipation of the
electronics.
Danger of burns from contact with surfaces!
‣If necessary, ensure protection against contact to prevent burns.
2�3 Workplace safety
For work on and with the device:
‣Wear the required protective equipment according to federal/national regulations.
2�4 Operational safety
Risk of injury!
‣Operate the device in proper technical condition and fail-safe condition only.
‣The operator is responsible for interference-free operation of the device.
2�4�1 Conversions to the device
Unauthorized modications to the device are not permitted and can lead to unforeseeable
dangers.
‣ If, despite this, modications are required, consult with Endress+Hauser.
2�4�2 Repair
To ensure continued operational safety and reliability,
‣Carry out repairs on the device only if they are expressly permitted.
‣Observe national regulations pertaining to the repair of an electrical device.
‣Only use original spare parts and accessories from Endress+Hauser.
2�4�3 Hazardous area
To eliminate danger to persons or the facility when the device is used in the hazardous
area (e.g. explosion protection):
‣Check the nameplate to verify whether the ordered device can be used as intended in
the hazardous area.
2�5 Product safety
The devices of the microwave barrier are designed in accordance with good engineering
practice to meet state-of-the-art safety requirements, has been tested, and le the factory
in a condition in which it is safe to operate.
They meet general safety standards and legal requirements. They also complies with the
EU directives listed in the device-specic EU Declaration of Conformity. Endress+Hauser
conrms this by axing the CE mark to the devices.
3 Product description
The Soliwave microwave barrier consists of the FQR56 transmitter and the FDR56 tran-
sceiver and is used for the non-contact point level detection of powdery to lumpy bulk
solids and liquids, for the purpose of monitoring and counting piece goods as well as for
the detection of build-up.
The devices of the Soliwave microwave barrier are available in dierent versions; the
choice of devices that are used depends on the specic application, as well as factors such
as the types of area for which they are approved and the electrical connection.

5�1�1 Mounting position
The installation position is arbitrary under consideration of the following conditions:
• Microwaves are polarized: FDR56 and FQR56 must not be rotated against each other
along their longitudinal axis (except by 180° or for detection ranges smaller than
300mm (11.8in)).
• Maintain a minimum distance of 30mm (1.18in).

5�2 Mounting the device
5�2�1 Mounting in contact with the process
The device is screwed directly into the process (for example in existing threads or vessel
sleeves) with its process connection (standard threads R 1½ according to EN 10226, G 1½
according to ISO 228-1 or 1½ NPT according to ANSI/ASME B1.20.1).

0000000157
8 Directmountingwiththreadedconnection
• If the process connection is not screwed far enough into the process wall, there is a risk
that material will accumulate in front of the device (A), thereby damping the microwave
signal.
• If, on the other hand, the process connection is screwed too far into the process (B),
there is a risk of damage occurring as a result of large product items falling.

Mounting
Screw in connection thread. For G 1½ thread: Tighten counternut.
Align the electronics housing (cable gland or plug connector of both devices must
point in the same direction).
Fix the housing in place.
• When using the G 1½ process connection (standard thread according to ISO 228-1,
hexagon SW55) with counternut, the device can be mounted ush particularly easi-
ly, as it is a cylindrical thread.
• Seal (if necessary): to be provided by the customer

‣ Weld the adapter ush with the inner wall of the container.
‣ Screw in the device ush with the inner wall. For G 1½ thread: Tighten counternut.

For a microwave-impermeable process wall (for example, metal vessel wall), mounting
is done in front of microwave-permeable windows such as plastic plugs, ceramic disks, or
sight glass ttings.
Mounting in front of microwave-permeable plugs of type FAR54
