Siemens Sitrans Lu180 7ml5202 Ultrasonicr Level Transmitter
Product Description
Siemens SITRANS LU150/ LU180 Ultrasonicr Transmitter
The SITRANS LU180 is an ultrasonicr level monitor combining sensor and electronics in a single package. It is designed to measure liquid levels in open or closed vessels. The process part (sensor) is PVDF, allowing the SITRANS LU180 to be used in a wide variety of industries, especially food and chemical.
The sensor houses the ultrasonicr transducer and temperature sensing element. The SITRANS LU180 emits a series of ultrasonicr pulses from the transducer. Each pulse is reflected as an echo from the material and sensed by the transducer.

The echo is processed by the SITRANS LU180 using Siemens' proven 'sonicr Intelligence' techniques. Filtering is applied to help discriminate between the true echo from the material, and false echoes from acoustical and electrical noises and agitator blades in motion. The time for the pulse to travel to the material and back is temperature compensated and then converted into distance for the mA output.

Application
The transducer is available in PVDF copolymer, making the device suitable for use in a wide variety of applications. SITRANS LU180 is easy to install and maintain, and can be quickly removed for cleaning as required by the food, beverage and pharmaceutical industries. The reliability of the level data is based on the sonicr Intelligence echo processing algorithms. A filter discriminates between the true echo and false echoes from acoustic or electrical noises and agitator blades in motion. The ultrasonicr pulse propagation time to the material and back is temperature compensated and converted into distance for display, analog output.

SITRANS LU150/LU180
SITRANS LU150/LU180 is a short-range, noncontacting ultrasonicr level measurement transmitter.
Designed primarily for liquid applications in the environmental, water/wastewater, and energy management industries, the device is ideal for non-contacting continuous level measurement of liquids and slurries in open or closed vessels.
IP68 rated, SITRANS LU150/LU180 has a rugged, fully encapsulated PVDF sensor that is resistant to corrosion, chemicals, and extreme shock.
With only two wires, installation of the unit is straightforward, and its two-button interface makes it both simple to configure and easy to use.
There are many mounting possibilities for SITRANS LU150/LU180, as there are four process connections to choose from, including the 4" Tri-clamp that allows the unit to be removed easily if necessary.
The reliability of the level readings are based on sonicr Intelligence echo processing algorithms that Siemens has been refining for
decades. These algorithms differentiate the true material level echoes from the false ones that can result from acoustic or electrical noises, as well as from agitator blades in motion.
It's effective, accurate, unique, and it's exclusively Siemens. For enhanced functionality, such as remote displays, mounting options, and monitoring solutions, Siemens offers supplementary,components and accessories to complete your level measurement package
