SITRANS LR400
■ Overview
■ Application
It provides excellent results on low dielectric media.
SITRANS LR400 is available for standard applications and for
applications that require explosion proof protection.
SITRANS LR400 features robust enclosure, flange and horn
components. It is virtually unaffected by atmospheric or
temperature conditions within the vessel.
Safe on-site local programming is simple using the Intrinsically
Safe handheld programmer. SIMATIC PDM can be used for easy
remote programming.
The characteristics of 24 GHz and high signal-to-noise ratio
contribute to exceptional signal reflection, regardless of the
dielectric value of the medium.
• Key Applications: long-range liquid or slurry applications,
high temperature [up to 250 °C (480 °F)] or high pressure,
low dielectric media, such as LPG (liquid, petroleum, gas)
without the need for stilling pipes
The SITRANS LR400 is a 4-wire, 24 GHz FMCW radar level
transmitter for continuous monitoring of liquids and slurries in
storage and process vessels including high temperature and
high pressure, to a range of 50 m (164 ft); ideal for low dielectric
media.
