Siemens is launching the new Sitrans LR560, its first radar level transmitter to operate at a frequency of 78 GHz. This is a non-contacting 2-wire FMCW (frequency modulated continuous wave) radar level measurement transmitter with a measurement range of 100 m for continuous solids level measurement.
Manufactured to ISO 9001:2008 and ISO 14001:2004 standards, it is available with HART, Profibus PA, or Foundation Fieldbus protocols. The Sitrans LR560 is on view in Hall 5, Stand A1.
Meeting the challenges of tank obstructions interfering with radar
Level Measurement & Control
One of the most challenging applications for non-contacting radar level transmitters is measuring level in tanks with internal obstructions, such as agitators, heating coils, pipes, ladders or baffles. Rosemount non-contacting radar level transmitters from Emerson feature an advanced solution that enables accurate and reliable level measurements in tanks with obstructions.
