  • Page 39: Appendix A: Technical Reference

    Appendix A: Technical Reference Principles of Operation SITRANS LR 200 is a sophisticated radar instrument that uses advanced microwave pulse technology to provide non-contacting continuous level measurement in liquids or slurries. Radar level measurement uses the time of flight principle to determine distance to a material surface.

  • Page 40: Echo Lock

    Echo Lock When the echoes are received, the relevant echo algorithm is applied to determine the true material echo. If the selected echo is within the window, the window is then centered about the echo. Otherwise the window widens with each successive shot until the selected echo is within the window, which then returns to its normal width.

  • Page 41: Failsafe Mode

  • Page 42 When you set Auto False-Echo Suppression to "Learn," the instrument learns the echo profile at that moment . Then it uses the learned profile instead of the default TVT curve, for the distance set in Auto False Echo Suppression Distance. The learned profile (learned TVT curve) follows the echo profile, so that no large false echoes rise above the learned TVT curve.

    Mounting: Rod Antenna Ideally, the nozzle should be as short as possible. If your application requires a nozzle that exceeds our recommended maximum length, consider using a shielded rod configuration. If you create a new nozzle for the radar instrument, the weld seams must be on the outside of the nozzle.

    Appendix H: PROFIBUS PA Profile Structure PROFIBUS Level Device Design The device follows the profile block model and is implemented as a Profile 3.0, Class B, PA device. Standard profile parameters are used to program the level transducer block. Block Model for recording and processing measured values The functions of the device are divided into blocks for different areas of responsibility.

  • Page 76: Description Of The Blocks

    Description of the blocks Transducer block function groups The figure below shows the signal flow of measured values from the sensor through the Transducer block into the output value (Primary Value/ Level or Volume; Secondary Value 1 / Level; Secondary Value 2 /Distance 1; or Secondary Value 3 / Distance 2). The Level TB implements all of the basic parameters (see parameter diagram on page 71), including level to volume calculation, if that option has been selected.

  • Page 78: Analog Input Function Blocks 1 And 2

    Electronics temperature The transducer block also monitors the internal temperature of the device electronics. If the temperature exceeds permitted limits, it does not change the sensor value, but it does change the status.The permitted limits correspond to those of the permitted ambient temperature.
  • Page 79 How the AIFBs work The Analog Input Function Blocks allow you to control modifications to the output value (PROFIBUS cyclic data). Output Conversion Values transmitted by the Level TB have a status attached. The decision on what to do with each value is made by the Analog Input Function Block. Device/ Input Simulation The input can be a simulated value instead of a TB OUT value.
  • Page 80 The scaling output is applied. For example: AIFB Out (or AIFB Out) straight to LCD (same values displayed on LCD as PLC) Output range: This value is filtered using a first order filter based on a time constant provided by the user.

Frequency may be stated in cycles per second. hertz (Hz): unit of frequency, one cycle per second. 1 Gigahertz (GHz) is equal to 10 horn antenna: a conical, horn-shaped antenna which focuses microwave signals. The larger the horn diameter, the more focused the radar beam.
