The process pressure boundary assembly comprises the components that act as a barrier against
pressure loss from the process vessel: that is, the combination of process connection body and
emitter, but normally excluding the electrical enclosure.
Siemens Level Transmitters with flanged, threaded, or sanitary clamp type process mounts
have no pressure-bearing housing of their own, and therefore do not come under the Pressure
Equipment Directive as pressure or safety accessories (see EU Commission Guideline 1/8 and
1/20).
Installation
WARNINGS:
• Installation shall be performed only by qualified personnel and in
accordance with local governing regulations.
• Handle the device using the enclosure, not the antenna or the process
connection tag, to avoid damage.
• Take special care when handling the threaded PVDF antenna. Any damage
to the antenna surface, particularly to the tip, could affect performance.
• Materials of construction are chosen based on their chemical compatibility
(or inertness) for general purposes. For exposure to specific environments,
check with chemical compatibility charts before installing.
Notes:
• For European Union and member countries, installation must be according to ETSI EN
302372.
• Refer to the device nameplate for approval information.
• 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.
English
Nozzle design
• The end of the antenna must protrude a minimum of 10 mm (0.4”) to avoid false echoes
being reflected from the nozzle.
• Minimum recommended nozzle diameter for the threaded PVDF antenna is 51 mm (2").
• An antenna extension (100 mm/ 3.93") is available for any version except the threaded
PVDF antenna.
• Provide an environment suitable to the housing
rating and materials of construction.
English
• Provide a sunshield if the device will be mounted
in direct sunlight.
Beam angle
• Beam angle is the width of the cone
where the energy density is half of the
peak energy density.
• Peak energy density is directly in front
of and in line with the antenna.
• Signal is 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.
Access for programming
• Provide easy access for viewing the display and programming via the handheld
programmer
Mounting instructions
WARNING: For pressure applications use PTFE tape or other appropriate thread
sealing compound and tighten the process connection beyond hand-tight. The
maximum recommended torque is 40 N-m (30 ft.lbs.)
Note:
• There is no limit to the number of times an instrument can be rotated without damage.
• When mounting, orient the front or back of the instrument towards the closest wall.
• Do not rotate the enclosure after programming and vessel calibration, otherwise an error
may occur, caused by a polarity shift of the transmit pulse.
Threaded Versions
1)Before inserting the instrument into its mounting connection, check to ensure the threads
are matching to avoid damaging them.
2) Simply screw the instrument into the process connection, and hand tighten, or use a
wrench. For pressure applications see Warning note above.
Flanged Versions
WARNING: 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.
Use a 2 mm Allen key to
loosen the lid-lock set
screw.

Measurement > SITRANS LR250.
The FISCO Concept allows interconnection of Intrinsically Safe apparatus to associated
apparatus not specifically examined in such combination. The criteria for interconnection is
that the voltage (Ui or Vmax), the current (Ii, or Imax) and the power (Pi, or Pmax) which
Intrinsically Safe apparatus can receive and remain Intrinsically Safe, considering faults, must
be equal to or greater than the voltage (Uo or Voc or Vi), the current (lo or Isc or li), and the
power (Po or Pmax) levels which can be delivered by the associated apparatus, considering
faults and applicable factors. In addition, the maximum unprotected capacitance (Ci) and
inductance (Li) of each apparatus (other than the termination) connected to the fieldbus must
be less than or equal to 5 nF and 10 μH respectively.
In each segment only one active device, normally the associated apparatus, is allowed to
provide the necessary energy for the fieldbus system. The allowed voltage Uo (or Voc or Vt) of
the associated apparatus is limited to the range of 14V dc to 24V dc. All other equipment
connected to the bus cable has to be passive, meaning that they are not allowed to provide
energy to the system, except for a leakage current of 50 μA for each connected device.
Separately powered equipment needs a galvanic isolation to assure that the Intrinsically Safe
fieldbus circuit remains passive.

Sensor calibration
The LR250 FF does not need to be calibrated, only configured using the Quick Start Wizard
below.
Configuring a new device
Configure a new device using the Quick Start Wizard, found in the Resource Block of the
function group Configure/Setup.
• Complete the steps in order. Click on Apply after revising parameters in each step, or
CANCEL to exit step without saving changes. (Note: Apply will write changes to the
device. OK will write changes to the device and exit to the Device Connection View.
CANCEL will exit to the Device Connection View without applying changes.)
• Do not use the Quick Start Wizard to modify individual parameters: see instead the AMS
chapter in the full LR250 FF Operating Instructions manual. (Perform customization only
after the Quick Start has been completed.)
• Values set using the Quick Start Wizard via AMS Device Manager are saved and recalled
each time it is initiated (unlike the Quick Start Wizard initiated via the handheld
programmer).
• To run the Quick Start Wizard for this device, the RESOURCE block must first be set to Out
of Service (OOS) mode, before any configuration changes (changes to parameters
affecting block output) can be written. (Setting RESOURCE block to OOS also sets LTB to
OOS.)
• After completing steps 1-4, review all settings in
further changes are required.
• After completing the Quick Start Wizard from AMS, you must manually place the
RESOURCE block in Automatic mode.
Launch AMS Device Manager and double-click the device icon from the Device Connection
View to open the startup screen. Navigate to Configure/Setup > Resource Block > Wizards >
Quick Start, and click on Step 1 - Identification.
