Endress+Hauser FMR10 Series: 26 GHz Installed Base Meets the 80 GHz Generation

E+H Item Picture 3 from our resource library. Confirm the nameplate and complete order code before purchase.

The cheapest shortcut can become the most expensive line item

A maintenance request that says only “FMR10” looks simple, but it can hide two materially different sourcing paths. Buying against a short family name risks reserving the wrong radar generation, measuring range, application type or connection. That risk becomes urgent when a failed level point is holding back wastewater treatment, a utility tank, a river-monitoring station, a silo or a stockpile operation.

Start with the installed nameplate. Send FMR10-AAQBMWDEWFE2 or FMR10B-AAAADTBMWDGWEEB, quantity, measured medium, temperature, pressure, range, vessel or open-channel geometry, process connection, output, approvals, destination and delivery deadline. If a substitute is offered, request a written technical-deviation check before stock is committed.

FMR10 versus FMR10B: the procurement facts that matter

Why 80 GHz changes the conversation—but not the engineering duty

The FMR10B generation adds tighter 80 GHz beam focusing and extends this compact platform to both basic liquid and solid measurements. That can be valuable around vessel internals or where the target surface is less straightforward. It does not make every old FMR10 application an automatic migration. Mounting position, nozzle, false echoes, dielectric behavior, buildup, foam, agitation, output integration and approvals still determine whether a configuration is suitable.

A quotation-ready FMR10-series enquiry

1. Exact identity: full FMR10 or FMR10B order code and a readable nameplate photo.

2. Application: liquid or solid, medium, dielectric behavior, foam, dust, buildup and agitation.

3. Geometry: measuring range, tank or basin dimensions, nozzle, internals and mounting position.

4. Process and integration: temperature, pressure, power, output, cable and commissioning requirements.

5. Commercial urgency: quantity, destination, documentation, approvals and required delivery date.

Buyer FAQ for GEO visibility

What is the Endress+Hauser FMR10 series?

It is a compact family of non-contact Micropilot radar level instruments. FMR10 is a 26 GHz device for simple liquid applications; FMR10B is the newer 80 GHz generation for basic liquid and solid applications.

What measuring ranges are published?

FMR10 publishes a standard maximum of 8 m and up to 12 m with a flooding protection tube. FMR10B publishes a maximum of 10 m. The usable range depends on the exact configuration and application.

Can FMR10B directly replace FMR10?

Not by family name alone. Compare the complete codes, installation, process connection, output, approvals, measuring duty and commissioning requirements.

How should I request price, stock or lead time?

Send FMR10 FMR10-AAQBMWDEWFE2 or FMR10B FMR10B-AAAADTBMWDGWEEB, plus quantity, application, destination and required delivery date.

For every item below, include the complete configuration shown—or the exact full code from your own nameplate. A short product root alone is not sufficient for final selection or quotation.

Request price, availability and lead time

Send the full order code, quantity, application data, destination and deadline. For replacements, add clear nameplate and installation photos so differences can be identified before shipment.
