The BM70A Level Radar complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules when installed

in totally enclosed metal tanks. A label is affixed to the instrument as shown

below:

When installing the metal, “horn” antenna versions with metal gaskets (all metal,

metal-sheathed, or spiral-wound metal gaskets), only normal installation

procedures should be observed.

When installing a device with a “Wave-Stick” PTFE antenna or with a non-

metallic gasket, the installation must include the shielding strip (item “C) and the

strap retainer (item “S”) shown in Section “6.1.8 Ultimate installation on the tank “

on page 23. Also, the flange bolt holes, top and bottom, must be completely

covered by the bolt heads and nuts which may require the use of flange bolts and

flange nuts or appropriately-sized flat washers.

The item referred to by the asterisk should read – “ * required for European radio

approvals and United States FCC Part 15 approval for Wave-Stick version or

FCC Part 15 approval when installed with non-metallic gaskets”.

When installing the BM70A in other than totally enclosed metal tanks, a site-

specific license under FCC Part 90 Rules must be obtained as Krohne’s FCC

identifier - FCC ID JH5BM70. Contact Krohne for procedure to obtain license.
