■

Overview

SITRANS LR200 is a 2-wire, 6 GHz pulse radar level transmitter

for continuous monitoring of liquids and slurries in storage and

process vessels including high temperature and pressure, to a

range of 20 m (66 ft).

■

Benefits

• Graphical local user interface (LUI) makes operation simple

with plug-and-play setup using the intuitive Quick Start Wizard

• LUI displays echo profiles for diagnostic support

• Communication using HART

or PROFIBUS PA

• Process Intelligence signal processing for improved measure-

ment reliability and Auto False-Echo Suppression of fixed ob-

structions

• Programming using infrared Intrinsically Safe handheld pro-

grammer or SIMATIC PDM

■

Application

SITRANS LR200’s unique design allows safe and simple pro-

gramming using the Intrinsically Safe handheld programmer

without having to open the instrument’s lid. It also features a

built-in alphanumeric display in four languages.

The SITRANS LR200 has a standard Uni-Construction polypro-

pylene rod antenna that offers excellent chemical resistance and

is hermetically sealed. The Uni-Construction antenna features

an internal, integrated shield that eliminates vessel nozzle inter-

ference.

Start-up is easy with as few as two parameters for basic opera-

tion. Installation is simplified as the electronics are mounted on

a rotating head that swivels, allowing the instrument to line up

with conduit or wiring connections or simply to adjust the posi-

tion for easy viewing. SITRANS LR200 features patented Pro-

cess Intelligence signal-processing technology for superior

reliability.

• Key Applications: liquid bulk storage tanks, process vessels

with agitators, vaporous liquids, high temperatures, asphalt,

digesters

beam

angle 28°

Beam angle is the width of the

cone where the energy density

is half of the peak energy

density.

Note:

•

The peak energy density is

directly in front of and in line

with the rod antenna.

•

There is a signal transmitted

outside of the beam angle;

therefore false targets may be

detected.
