Application SITRANS LR200’s unique design allows safe and simple pro-gramming using the Intrinsically Safe handheld programmer without having to open the instrument’s lid. It also features a built-in
alphanumeric display in four languages. The SITRANS LR200 has a standard Uni-Construction polypro-pylene rod antenna that offers excellent chemical resistance and is hermetically sealed. The Uni-Construction antenna features an internal, integrated shield that eliminates vessel
nozzle suppliers inter-ference.Start-up is easy with as few as two parameters for basic opera-tion. Installation is simplified as the electronics are mounted on a rotating head that swivels, allowing the instrument to line up with conduit or wiring connections or simply to adjust the posi-tion for easy viewing. SITRANS LR200 features patented Pro-cess Intelligence signal-processing technology for superior reli-
ability. •Key Applications: liquid bulk
storage tanks manufacturer, process vessels with agitators, vaporous liquids, high temperatures, asphalt, digesters >
