SITRANS LR560
SITRANS LR560 Overview
SITRANS LR560 is a 2-wire, 78 GHz FMCW radar level transmitter for continuous
monitoring of solids in vessels to a range of 100 m (329 ft). The plug and play performance
is ideal for all solids applications, including those with extreme dust and high
temperatures to +200 °C (+392 °F). The device consists of an electronic circuit coupled to
a lens antenna and flange for quick and easy positioning.
The main benefits of using 78 GHz over devices using lower frequency are:
• very narrow beam, so device is insensitive to mounting nozzle interference and
vessel obstructions.
• short wavelength yields very good reflection properties on sloped solids, so aiming
towards material angle of repose is usually not necessary.
The technology is very tolerant of buildup on the lens antenna, however an air purge inlet
is provided for periodic cleaning if required.
SITRANS LR560 supports PROFIBUS PA communication protocol, and SIMATIC PDM
software. Signals are processed using Process Intelligence which has been field-proven
in over 1,000,000 applications worldwide (ultrasonic and radar). This device supports
acyclic communications from both a PROFIBUS Class I and Class II master.
Programming
SITRANS LR560 is very easy to install and configure via an optional graphical local
display interface. You can modify the built-in parameters either locally via the push
buttons or using the infrared handheld programmer, or from a remote location using one
of the following options:
• PROFIBUS PA (using SIMATIC PDM, FDT [such as PACTware or Fieldcare])
• HART (using 375 handheld Field Communicator, SIMATIC PDM, AMS, FDT [such as
PACTware or Fieldcare]). See SITRANS LR560 (mA/HART) Instruction Manual for
more information.
• Foundation Fieldbus FF (using 375 handheld Field Communicator or AMS). See
SITRANS LR560 (Foundation Fieldbus) Instruction Manual for more information.
Once programmed, the graphic Local Display Interface (LDI) can be removed and used to
transfer parameters to multiple SITRANS LR560s.
