Siemens brings out an economical new radar antenna for level measurement

• Cost-effective new antennas deliver reliable liquids level measurement at a budget-conscious price point

• High corrosion resistance polypropylene and FKM wetted materials for use in a wide range of chemicals

• For bulk liquid storage tanks, process vessels with agitators and vaporous liquids

Siemens presents Sitrans LR250 PLA (polypropylene lens antenna) radar level measurement transmitter, a field-proven device delivering reliable level readings for inventory management or critical process control. This high performing horn and lens design is a perfect fit for corrosive chemicals level measurement with a nominal pressure and temperature environment.

Sitrans LR250 is available with HART (Highway Addressable Remote Transducer), Profibus PA, or Foundation Fieldbus protocols to support the digitalization journey. With the graphical Quick Start Wizard, the Sitrans LR250 is operational in minutes and the infrared handheld programmer supports local programming. Process Intelligence signal processing ensures reliability and maintenance free operation. Sitrans LR250 has proven to be a reliable performer for bulk liquid storage tanks, process vessels with agitators, vaporous liquids and low dielectric media.
