a) Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause
interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including
interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.
b) This device shall be installed and operated in a completely enclosed container to
prevent RF emission which otherwise can interfere with aeronautical navigation.
Installation shall be done by trained installers, in strict compliance with the
manufacturer’s instructions.
c) The use of this device is on a “no-interference, no-protection” basis. That is, the
user shall accept operations of high-powered radar in the same frequency band
which may interfere with or damage this device. On the other hand, level probing
devices found to interfere with primary licensing operations will be required to be
removed at the user’s expense.

d) This level probing device is only permitted for installation inside enclosed
containers. The installer/user of this device shall ensure that it is at least 10 km from
the Penticton radio astronomy station (British Columbia latitude: 49° 19' 12" N,
longitude: 119° 37'12" W). For devices not meeting this 10 km separation (e.g. the
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia) the installer/ user must coordinate with and
obtain the written concurrence of the Director of the Penticton radio astronomy
station before the equipment can be installed or operated. The Penticton contact is

SITRANS LR560 Overview
SITRANS LR560 is a 2-wire, 78 GHz FMCW radar level transmitter for continuous
monitoring of solids in vessels to a range of 100 m (329 ft). The plug and play performance
is ideal for all solids applications, including those with extreme dust and high
temperatures to +200 °C (+392 °F). The device is an electronic circuit coupled to a lens
antenna and flange for quick and easy positioning.
The main benefits of using 78 GHz over devices using lower frequency are:
• very narrow beam, so device is insensitive to mounting nozzle interference and
vessel obstructions.
• short wavelength yields very good reflection properties on sloped solids, so aiming
towards material angle of repose is usually not necessary.
The technology is very tolerant to buildup on the lens antenna, however an air purge inlet
is provided for periodic cleaning if required.
SITRANS LR560 supports HART communication protocol, and SIMATIC PDM software.
Signals are processed using Process Intelligence which has been field-proven in over
1,000,000 applications worldwide (ultrasonic and radar).
SITRANS LR560
Programming
SITRANS LR560 is very easy to install and configure via an optional graphical local
display interface. You can modify the built-in parameters either locally via the push
buttons or using the infra-red handheld programmer, or from a remote location using one
of the following options:
• HART (using 375 handheld Field Communicator, SIMATIC PDM, AMS, Pactware FDT/
DTM)
• PROFIBUS PA (using SIMATIC PDM, FDT [such as PACTware or Fieldcare]) (See
SITRANS LR560 (PROFIBUS PA) Instruction Manual for more information.)
• Foundation Fieldbus FF (using handheld 375 Field Communicator, FF host system or
AMS Device Manager) [See SITRANS LR560 (Foundation Fieldbus) Instruction
Manual for more information.]
Once programmed, the graphic Local Display Interface (LDI) can be removed if desired
and used to transfer parameters to multiple SITRANS LR560s.
7ML19985KB01 SITRANS LR560 (mA/HART) – INSTRUCTION MANUAL Page 5
Local Display Interface (LDI)
• LDI may be ordered installed or added later as
an option
• can be mounted in 1 of 4 positions at 90 degree
intervals, for easy viewing after installation
• displays level and diagnostic information
including echo profile and trend over time
• backlit for easy viewing in dimly lit areas
• allows you to copy parameters from one device
to another
• provides high speed firmware transfer capabilities for future upgrades
Versions
Two different versions of the LR560 are available:
• 40 m range, +100 °C maximum process temperature
• 100 m range, +200 °C maximum process temperature
Applications

Installation
WARNINGS:
• Installation shall only be performed by qualified personnel and in
accordance with local governing regulations.
• SITRANS LR560 is to be used only in the manner outlined in this manual,
otherwise protection provided by the device may be impaired.
• Never attempt to loosen, remove, or disassemble process connection
or instrument housing while vessel contents are under pressure.
• The user is responsible for the selection of bolting and gasket materials
which will fall within the limits of the flange and its intended use and
which are suitable for the service conditions.
• Improper installation may result in loss of process pressure.
Notes:
• For European Union and member countries, installation must be according to ETSI
EN 302372.
• Refer to the device label for approval information.
• SITRANS LR560 units are pressure tested, meeting or exceeding the requirements of
the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code and the European Pressure Equipment
Directive.
• The serial numbers stamped in each process connection body provide a unique
identification number indicating date of manufacture.
Example: MMDDYY – XXX (where MM = month, DD = day, YY = year, and
XXX= sequential unit produced)
Further markings (space permitting) indicate flange configuration, size, pressure
class, material, and material heat code.
Pressure Equipment Directive, PED, 97/23/EC
Note: Pertains to pressure-rated version only.
Installation
SITRANS LR560 Radar Level Measurement instrument falls below the limits of Article 3,
sections 1&2 of the Pressure Equipment directive (PED, 97/23/EC), as a category I
pressure accessory. However, in accordance with PED, 97/23/EC, Article 3, section 3, this
equipment has been designated and manufactured in accordance with Sound
Engineering Practice (SEP) (see EU Commission Guideline 1/5).

Shaper Mode (2.8.4.)
Beam angle
• Beam angle is the width of
the cone where the energy
density is half of the peak
energy density.
• The peak energy density is
directly in front of and in line
with the antenna.
• There is a signal transmitted
outside the beam angle,
therefore false targets may
be detected.
Emission cone
• Keep emission cone free of
interference from ladders,
pipes, I-beams or filling
streams.
• Avoid central locations on
tall, narrow vessels.
• LR560 uses circular polarization. Rotation of device is not required to optimize

1. For 4" and 6" Aimer: Loosen the set screws in the locking ring.
Holding the electronics enclosure firmly, loosen the Aimer locking ring using the
supplied C spanner, until the LR560 drops down slightly. The enclosure can then be
turned freely.
2. Direct SITRANS LR560 so the antenna is pointed at an angle perpendicular to the
material surface, if possible.
3. When the desired position is reached, re-tighten the locking ring using the C
spanner, and tighten set screws.
4. For the 3" Aimer flange, tapered split washers with pressure rated versions are
provided to keep nuts and bolts perpendicular to the flange surface.
Installation
Air Purging System
purge process
connection with
factory-installed
1/8" NPT plug
For convenient cleaning, a purging inlet is provided above the antenna. The system
provides an 1/8" inlet (female thread) above the antenna where clean, dry air passes to
the face of the antenna lens to clean it. The customer will supply the purging air by a
manual or automatic valve system.
Notes:
• Purge duration, pressure, and interval, will vary with each application. It is the user’s
responsibility to determine the requirements depending on the application and
cleaning required.
• Short duration bursts of high pressure provide more effective cleaning than continuous low pressure air.
• It is the customer’s responsibility to ensure that any vacuum or pressure in the measured vessel is maintained, considering the hole that passes through the process
connection and SITRANS LR560 antenna system.

Purge Connection
• The purge connection is closed

• When the plug is removed to
connect a purging system, the
operator is responsible for
ensuring that the purging circuit
