3.1 SITRANS Probe LR
SITRANS Probe LR is a 2-wire loop-powered, continuous level measuring instrument that
utilizes advanced pulse radar technology operating at a frequency of approximately 6 GHz.
The instrument consists of an electronic component coupled to the antenna and process
connection. It is very easy to install and set up, using either the infrared handheld
programmer locally, or using SIMATIC PDM from a remote location.
Communication is via HART. Signals are processed using Process Intelligence which has
been field-proven in over 500,000 applications worldwide (ultrasonic and radar).
SITRANS Probe LR is available in two versions
● General purpose (non-hazardous)
● Intrinsically Safe (with suitable barrier)
Applications
SITRANS Probe LR is designed to measure liquid levels in a variety of applications.
● liquid bulk storage vessels
● simple process vessels with gentle agitation
● liquids
● slurries

This product is designated as a Pressure Accessory per Directive 2014/68/EU and is not
intended for use as a safety device.
4.1 Basic safety notes
4.1.1 Incorrect disassembly
The following risks may result from incorrect disassembly:
- Injury through electric shock
- Risk through emerging media when connected to the process
- Risk of explosion in hazardous area
In order to disassemble correctly, observe the following:
• Before starting work, make sure that you have switched off all physical variables such
as pressure, temperature, electricity etc. or that they have a harmless value.
• If the device contains hazardous media, it must be emptied prior to disassembly. Make
sure that no environmentally hazardous media are released.
• Secure the remaining connections so that no damage can result if the process is started
unintentionally.
Danger to personnel, system and environment will result from improper disassembly.
• Never attempt to loosen, remove, or disassemble process connection while vessel
contents are under pressure.
