SITRANS LU10
■ Overview
■ Benefits
• Ten point, long-range level monitoring
• Automatic level-to-volume conversion for standard or custom
tank shapes
• Dolphin Plus compatible
• Backlit LCD display with reading in standard engineering units
• Easy to install, easy to program using removable infrared
keypad (optional)
■ Application
It can be used in a wide range of applications to scan liquids,
solids or a combination of both contained in vessels of differing
size, shape, and configuration up to 60 m (200 ft).

SITRANS LU10 uses ultrasonic technology to measure level,
space, distance, volume, or average/differential. Transducers
can be mounted up to 365 m (1 200 ft) from the monitor. The
SITRANS LU10 features Sonic Intelligence echo processing
software for superior reliability. Readings are displayed in userselectable linear engineering units on the LCD.
• Key Applications: chemical storage, liquid storage, bulk
solids storage (sugar, flour bins, grains, cereals), plastic
pellets, tank farms

Notes:
1. Transducer cables must be run in a grounded metal conduit separate from other wiring (except TS-3 temperature sensor wiring, if
applicable).
2. Optional TIB-9 card for multiple temperature sensors. Do not jump the terminals if TS-3s are not used.
3. The SITRANS LU10 is compatible with the following Siemens Milltronics peripherals:
- SITRANS LU AO - analog output module
