New encapsulated antenna - Radar level measurement flexibility
30 Jun 2014
Siemens has launched a new flanged, encapsulated antenna with a measuring range of up to 20 meters for the Sitrans LR250 radar level transmitter. Advantage of the new antenna for the user: minimal maintenance and easycleaning as there is no need to remove the flush-mounted lens antenna during clean-in-place (CIP) cycles.
The 2-wire, non-contacting 25 GHz pulse radar level transmitter has been designed to continuously monitor liquids and slurries in storage and process vessels. The new antenna also opens up a wide range of applications, in particular those involving the kind of aggressive or corrosive media, high temperature or pressure environments found in the chemical, oil and gas, food and beverage industries.
Sitrans LR250 is available with Hart, Profibus PA or Foundation Fieldbus communication protocols.
