Basic safety instructions Levelflex FMP56, FMP57 HART
Residual risk
The electronics housing and its built-in components such as display module, main electronics
module and I/O electronics module may heat to 80 °C (176 °F) during operation through heat
transfer from the process as well as power dissipation within the electronics. During operation
the sensor may assume a temperature near the temperature of the measured material.
Danger of burns due to heated surfaces!
‣ For high process temperatures: Install protection against contact in order to prevent burns.

Mounting distances
• Distance (A) between wall and rod or rope probe:
– for smooth metallic walls: > 50 mm (2 in)
– for plastic walls: > 300 mm (12 in) to metallic parts outside the vessel
– for concrete walls: > 500 mm (20 in), otherwise the available measuring range may be
reduced.
• Distance (B) between rod or rope probe and internal fittings in the vessel: > 300 mm (12 in)
• When using more than one Levelflex:
Minimum distance between the sensor axes: 100 mm (3.94 in)
• Distance (C) from end of probe to bottom of the vessel:
– Rope probe: > 150 mm (6 in)
– Rod probe: > 10 mm (0.4 in)

2 Mounting kit isolated
• The end of the probe needs to be secured under the following conditions:
– if otherwise the probe sporadically comes into contact with the wall of the vessel, the
outlet cone, internal fittings or other parts of the installation.
– if otherwise the probe sporadically gets close to a concrete wall (minimum distance 0.5
m / 20 inch).
• The end of probe can be secured at its internal thread
– rope 4 mm (1/6"), 316: M 14
– rope 6 mm (1/4"), 316: M 20
– rope 6mm (1/4"), PA>steel: M14
– rope 8mm (1/3"), PA>steel: M20
• Preferably use the 6 mm (1/4") rope probe due to the higher tensile strength when fixing a
rope probe.
• The fixing must be either reliably grounded or reliably insulated. If it is not possible to
mount the probe weight with a reliably insulated connection, it can be secured using an
isolated eyelet, which is available as an accessory.
• In order to prevent an extremely high tensile load (e.g. due to thermal expansion) and the
risk of rope crack, the rope has to be slack. Make the rope longer than the required
measuring range such that there is a sag in the middle of the rope that is ≥ 1cm/(1 m rope
length) [0.12 inch/(1 ft rope length)].

1. Using an Allen key, loosen the set screws at the end-of-probe weight. Note: The set
screws have got a clamping coating in order to prevent accidental loosening. Thus an
increased torque might be necessary to loosen them.
2. Remove released rope from the weight.
3. Measure off new rope length.
4. Wrap adhesive tape around the rope at the point to be shortened to prevent it from
fanning out.
5. Saw off the rope at a right angle or cut it off with a bolt cutter.
6. Insert the rope completely into the weight.
7. Screw the set screws into place. Due to the clamping coating of the setscrews application
of a screw locking fluid is not necessary.

Devices with mounting thread are screwed into a welding boss or a flange and are usually also
secured with these.
• Tighten with the hexagonal nut only:
– Thread 3/4": Hexagonal wrench 36 mm
– Thread 1-1/2": Hexagonal wrench 55 mm
• Maximum permissible torque:
– Thread 3/4": 45 Nm
– Thread 1-1/2": 450 Nm
• Recommended torque when using the supplied aramid fibre seal and a process
pressure of 40 bar (580 psi):
– Thread 3/4": 25 Nm
– Thread 1-1/2": 140 Nm
• When installing in metal containers, take care to ensure good metallic contact
between the process connection and container.
Flange mounting
If a seal is used, be sure to use unpainted metal bolts to ensure good electrical contact
between probe flange and process flange.

When lowering the rope probe into the vessel, observe the following:
• Uncoil rope and lower it slowly and carefully into the vessel.
• Do not kink the rope.
• Avoid any backlash, since this might damage the probe or the vessel fittings.
Mounting rope probes in a partially full silo
It is not always possible to empty a silo which is already in operation. If a minimum of
2/3 of the silo is empty, it is possible to install the probe into the partially filled silo. If
possible, make a visual check after the installation to see that the rope has not tangled or
is lying such that it can knot when the level falls. Before full accuracy is obtained the
probe rope must hang fully extended.

LCAUTION
The plugs of the connection cable may be damaged by mechanical stress.
‣ Mount the probe and the electronics housing tightly before connecting the cable.
‣ Lay the cable such that it is not exposed to mechanical stress. Minimum bending radius:
100 mm (4").
‣ When connecting the cable: Connect the straight plug before the angled one. Torque for
both coupling nuts: 6 Nm.

LCAUTION
To ensure electrical safety:
‣ Do not disconnect the protective connection (6).
‣ Disconnect the supply voltage before disconnecting the protective earth (7).
Connect protective earth to the internal ground terminal (7) before connecting the
supply voltage. If necessary, connect the potential matching line to the external ground
terminal (11).
In order to ensure electromagnetic compatibility (EMC): Do not only ground the device
via the protective earth conductor of the supply cable. Instead, the functional grounding
must also be connected to the process connection (flange or threaded connection) or to
the external ground terminal.
An easily accessible power switch must be installed in the proximity of the device. The
power switch must be marked as a disconnector for the device (IEC/EN61010).
