Product catalog summary
Introduction
The LST100 is an ultrasonic level transmitter designed for measuring liquid levels in tanks up to 10 meters (30 feet) high. It features a 1 to 5 V DC analog output and RS485 digital communications, making it suitable for chemical applications in upstream oil and gas.

Features
  • Tracks chemical usage and stock levels with remote access via Totalflow RTU.
  • FM approved for hazardous zones with and without barriers.
  • Corrosion-resistant and designed for ultra-low power consumption, ideal for battery and solar applications.

Design and Functionality
The LST100 operates by emitting an acoustic pulse that reflects off the liquid surface back to the transducer, allowing the microprocessor to calculate the liquid level accurately. It is designed to function reliably even at low voltages and has a low power consumption, reducing ownership costs.

Installation and Configuration
  • Quick installation with a specially-designed mounting bracket.
  • Easy configuration through a quick-start menu.
  • Allows for easy duplication of settings across multiple tanks.

Specifications
  • Measurement range: 0.85 to 20 ft / 1.15 to 30 ft.
  • Accuracy: ±1/2 in. or 0.25% of full span.
  • Housing material: PVDF, with dimensions of 122 mm height and 78 mm diameter.
  • Power supply: 9 to 16 V DC, with RS485 communication and 1 to 5 V analog output.

Environmental and Safety Approvals
  • Intrinsic Safety and Non-Incentive protection for hazardous areas.
  • EMC compliant and resistant to overvoltage, temperature, humidity, and pressure variations.

Ordering Information
Options include explosion protection certification, sensor type and range, process connection type, housing material, power supply, and output signal.

LST100 Ultrasonic level transmitter for upstream oil and gas-3

Reliable measurement, all the way to the top of the tank Easy installation and configuration Ultrasonic level transmitters usually have a dead zone where no measurement is possible. The LST100 is designed to enable reliable readings all the way to the top of the tank. – – The LST100, with its class-leading blanking system, can provide a highly accurate measurement to within 75 mm (3 in.) of the top of the tank when used with an optional mounting bracket. –– Most instruments would lose the measurement when it reaches the blanking distance, but the LST100 can reliably detect a ‘full tank’ condition....
