Optimum
solutions for all applications
The Siemens portfolio for capacitance level measurement
offers a broad range of sensor options and modular probe versions. Siemens
offers two series for capacitance level measurement:
SITRANS LC300 for
continuous level measurement for liquids and bulk solids, and
SITRANS LC500 for
continuous level measurement or interface measurement in difficult applications.
SITRANS
LC300 is an inverse frequency shift capacitance continuous level transmitter
for liquids and solids applications. It is ideal for standard industrial
applications in chemical, hydrocarbon processing, food and beverage and mining,
aggregate and cement industries.
SITRANS LC300 is a 2-wire level measurement instrument combining
a sophisticated, yet easy-to-adjust microprocessor with field-proven probes. It
is available in two versions: rod and cable.
SITRANS LC300 has a stainless steel process connection with
PFA-lined probe. Materials with low or high dielectric properties are
accurately measured and patented Active-Shield technology helps in ignoring the
effects of buildup near vessel nozzle.
Key Applications: Conductive and non-conductive media including
liquids and solids in standard industrial processes and bulk solids
applications involving dust or chemical processes involving vapour
Benefits
Patented Active-Shield technology so measurement is
unaffected by material buildup in active shield section
Highly accurate and reliable PFA-lined probes
Integrated local LCD display
2-wire (4 to 20 mA) current loop design
Current signalling according to NAMUR NE 43
Push-button calibration and programming
