SITRANS LR 200
WARNING: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Siemens
Milltronics could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A
digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a
commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential
area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct
the interference at his own expense
SITRANS LR 200 is to be used only in the manner outlined in this manual, otherwise protection
provided by the equipment may be impaired.
SITRANS LR 200 is a 2-wire loop-powered, continuous level-measuring instrument that utilizes
advanced pulse radar technology at 5.8 GHz (6.3 GHz in the USA). The instrument consists of an
electronic component coupled to the antenna and process connection.

Installation
WARNINGS:
• This product can only function properly and safely if it is correctly
transported, stored, installed, set up, operated, and maintained.
• This product is designated as a Pressure Accessory per Directive 97 / 23 / EC,
and is not intended for use as a safety device.
• 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.
• Do not attempt to loosen, remove, or disassemble process connection or
instrument housing while vessel contents are under pressure.
• Improper installation may result in loss of process pressure.

RUN Mode and PROGRAM Mode
SITRANS LR 200 has 2 modes of operation: RUN and PROGRAM.
After you complete the installation procedures and power up SITRANS LR 200, it starts in RUN
mode and detects the distance to the material level in meters. This is the default start-up
display mode.
RUN Mode Display
Use the hand programmer to control the display.

1 – Primary Reading (displays level, distance, or volume, in either units or percent).
2 – Parameter for Auxiliary Reading (can be set to display milliAmp value (HART only),
distance, or confidence. It displays units, if applicable.)
4 – Echo status indicator: Reliable Echo
or Unreliable Echo
5 – Units or Percent
6 – Active bar graph represents material level
7 – Auxiliary Reading
Whenever a loss of echo occurs, LOE flashes and the Reliable Echo indicator is replaced by
the Unreliable indicator. Before the Failsafe Timer expires, the letters LOE (Loss of Echo)
alternate with the reading every two seconds. Once the Failsafe condition is established, LOE
is displayed permanently. When a valid reading is received, the level reading display returns to
normal operation.

Using P837 and P838 (perform this function at low tank levels)
If SITRANS LR 200 displays an incorrect full level, or if the reading fluctuates between a false
high level and a correct level, use P838 and P837 together to elevate the TVT (Time Varying
Threshold) in this region and de-sensitize the receiver from any ‘base noise’ caused by internal
antenna reflections, nozzle echoes, or other vessel false echoes.
Notes:
• Use this function only if there is a minimum distance of 2 meters from SITRANS LR 200 to
the material.
• Set P837 and P838 during start up, if possible.
• If the vessel contains an agitator, the agitator should be running.

You will need the full manual to acquire the list of applicable parameters.
The HART Device Descriptor (DD) may be obtained from the HART Communication
Foundation at www.hartcomm.org
We recommend that you use Simatic Process Device Manager (PDM) to program
your instrument.
Maintenance
SITRANS LR 200 requires no maintenance or cleaning under normal operating conditions. If
cleaning becomes necessary under severe operating conditions:
1. Note the antenna material and the process medium, and select a cleaning solution
that will not react adversely with either.
2. Remove the instrument from service and wipe the antenna clean using a cloth and
suitable cleaning solution.
