  • Page 6: For Your Safety

    During work on and with the device the required personal protective equipment must always be worn. Appropriate use The SITRANS LVL200S is a sensor for point level detection. You can find detailed information about the area of application in chapter "Product description". Operational reliability is ensured only if the instrument is properly used according to the specifications in the operating instructions manual as well as possible supplementary instructions.
  • Page 7: Safety Label On The Instrument

    SITRANS LVL200S fulfils the requirements to functional safety ac- cording to IEC 61508 or IEC 61511. You find further information in the Safety Manual "SITRANS LVL200". Safety instructions for Ex areas Please note the Ex-specific safety information for installation and op- eration in Ex areas. These safety instructions are part of the operating instructions manual and come with the Ex-approved instruments. Siemens Contro *7ML19985KS01* SITRANS LVL200S - Operating Instructions...
  • Page 8: Product Description

    • SIL identification (with SIL rating ex works) Principle of operation Application area SITRANS LVL200S is a point level sensor with tuning fork for point level detection. It is designed for industrial use in all areas of process technology and can be used in liquids. Typical applications are overfill and dry run protection. With its tuning...
  • Page 9: Adjustment

    This change is detected by the integrated electronics module and converted into a switching command. Voltage supply SITRANS LVL200S is a compact instrument, i.e. it can be oper- ated without external evaluation system. The integrated electronics evaluates the level signal and outputs a switching signal. With this switching signal, a connected device can be operated directly (e.g.
  • Page 10: Accessories

    For connecting the sensors with a separator to voltage supply or sig- nal processing, the sensors are also available with plug connectors. The following plug connectors are available: • M12 x 1 • ISO 4400 • Harting HAN 7D • Harting HAN 8D • Amphenol-Tuchel SITRANS LVL200S - Operating Instructions *7ML19985KS01*...
  • Page 11: Mounting

    You can find the specifications in chapter "Technical data" and on the nameplate. Switching point In general, SITRANS LVL200S can be installed in any position. The instrument only has to be mounted in such a way that the tuning fork is at the height of the desired switching point.

  • Page 13 Fig. 6: Measures against moisture ingress Caution: Transport Do not hold SITRANS LVL200S on the tuning fork. Particularly with flange or tube versions, the tuning fork can be damaged just by the weight of the instrument. Transport coated instruments very carefully and avoid touching the tuning fork. Remove the packaging or the protective cover just before installation.
  • Page 14: Mounting Instructions

    Mounting instructions Welded socket SITRANS LVL200S has a defined thread starting point. This means that every SITRANS LVL200S is in the same fork position after being screwed in. Remove therefore the supplied seal from the thread of SITRANS LVL200S. This seal is not required when using a welded socket with O-ring in front.
  • Page 15 For this reason, mount SITRANS LVL200S at a position in the vessel where no disturbances, e.g. from filling openings, agitators, etc., can occur. Product flow To make sure the tuning fork of SITRANS LVL200S generates as little resistance as possible to product flow, mount the sensor so that the surfaces are parallel to the product movement. Gas-tight leadthrough The second seal of the gas-tight leadthrough (option) prevents an uncontrolled leakage of the medium.
