!Note!
This operating manual explains the installation and initial start-up for the level
transmitter. All functions that are required for a typical measuring task are taken into
account here. In addition, the Micropilot M 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 82.
The operating manual BA 221F/00/en "Description of the instrument functions for
Micropilot M" provides an extensive description of all device functions, which can be
found on the enclosed CD-ROM.

Safety instructions Micropilot M FMR 231 with HART/4...20 mA
4Endress + Hauser
1Safetyinstructions
1.1 Designated use
The Micropilot M FMR 231 is a compact radar level transmitter for the continuous,
contactless measurement of liquids, pastes and sludge. 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 M 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
1.3.1 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.
1.3.2 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.

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.
Symbol Meaning
#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
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
%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
