Siemenspresents Sitrans LR100 series 80 GHz radar transmitters, compact instrumentswith a narrow beam for flexible installations in existing vessel openings—oreven non-intrusively through plastic vessels. The transmitters’ 80GHz highfrequency delivers robust, reliable measurements even in challengingenvironments such as those with vapors, condensation, turbulence, or solids. Thecustom microchip technology delivers fast response and extremely highsensitivity to detect even the weakest of signals.
Siemenspresents Sitrans LR100 series 80 GHz radar transmitters, compact instrumentswith a narrow beam for flexible installations in existing vessel openings—oreven non-intrusively through plastic vessels. The transmitters’ 80GHz highfrequency delivers robust, reliable measurements even in challengingenvironments such as those with vapors, condensation, turbulence, or solids. Thecustom microchip technology delivers fast response and extremely highsensitivity to detect even the weakest of signals.
The seriesconsists of three products: Sitrans LR100 for basic measurement to 8 meter, SitransLR110 with communication and hazardous approvals options and range to 15 meter,Sitrans LR120 with communication, longest range to 30 meter and optionalsubmergence shield for flooding protection. 2-wire loop powered with HART oroptional Modbus RTU connectivity consumes very low energy and the fast start upis ideal for CSO (combined sewer overflow) applications.
Thetransmitters’ dependable readings reduce workers' exposure to hazardous situations:no need to climb tanks, lean out over sumps, or crawl into confined spaces tomaintain instruments. As well, zero-meter blanking distance allows measurementright up to the sensor, thereby avoiding costly overfilling. And two-millimeteraccuracy enhances operational safety through precise measurement through thefull range of the application.
All thisrobust performance is wrapped in an IP68 submersible housing constructed of corrosionresistant PVDF. Simple commissioning is achieved with the Bluetooth interfaceand the Sitrans mobile IQ App or the Sitrans RD150 remote display. In remoteareas connected to the Sitrans RTU3030C remote terminal unit, critical data canbe transmitted as well as remote servicing can be performed.
Integratingcritical level readings or process control data into operations can unlock newopportunities to react to safety concerns, analyze processes and identify areasfor improvement. Users can monitor level measurements or diagnostic andmaintenance information from the comfort of the control room or connect to SiemensMindSphere, the cloud-based,open IoT operating system.
