Fill rate = 0.08 m/minute [(Low Cal Pt. minus High Cal Pt.) / fastest of fill or empty time] = (15.5 m – 1 m) / 180 min. = 14.5 m /180 min. = 0.08 m/min. Therefore SLOW response rate (0.1 m/minute) can be selected. SITRANS LR560 Sensor Reference Point 1.0 m High Calibration Point 15.

Appendix C: Maintenance SITRANS LR560 requires no maintenance or cleaning under normal operating conditions. Under severe operating conditions, the antenna may require periodic cleaning. If cleaning becomes necessary: • Note the antenna material and the process medium, and select a cleaning solution that will not react adversely with either. • Remove the instrument from service and wipe the antenna clean using a cloth and suitable cleaning solution.
Appendix D: Technical Reference Note: Where the number follows the parameter name [for example, Algorithm (2.4.5.1.)] this is the parameter access number via the handheld programmer. See Parameter Reference on page 86 for a complete list of parameters. Principles of Operation SITRANS LR560 is a 2-wire 78 GHz FMCW radar level transmitter for continuous monitoring of solids in vessels1). Radar level measurement uses the time of flight principle to determine distance to a material surface.
Echo Processing Process Intelligence The signal processing technology embedded in Siemens radar level devices is known as Process Intelligence. Process intelligence provides high measurement reliability regardless of the dynamically changing conditions within the vessel being monitored. The embedded Process Intelligence dynamically adjusts to the constantly changing material surfaces within these vessels.
Position Detect (2.4.5.2.) The echo position detection algorithm determines which point on the echo will be used to calculate the precise time of flight, and calculates the range using the calibrated propagation velocity. There are four options: • Rising • Center • Hybrid • CLEF (Constrained Leading Edge Fit) Rising Uses rising edge of the echo. Center Uses center of the echo. Hybrid Uses combination of Center and CLEF. CLEF (Constrained Leading Edge Fit) • • Uses the leading edge of the echo.
Example: CLEF off: Position set to Hybrid Vessel height: 5 m; CLEF range set to 0 (Center algorithm gives the same result.) default TVT material echo vessel bottom echo selected echo marker Example: CLEF enabled Vessel height: 5 m; Far Range 5.
CLEF Range (2.4.5.4.) Determines the level below which the CLEF algorithm will be used. Above this level the Center algorithm is used when Hybrid is selected in Position Detect (2.4.5.2.). CLEF Range is referenced from Far Range.96 sensor reference point CLEF Range Low Calibration Point Far Range Echo Threshold (2.4.5.3.) Confidence (2.4.7.1.) describes the quality of an echo. Higher values represent higher quality.
Auto False Echo Suppression (2.4.8.1.) Notes: • To access this feature via AMS see TVT on page 54. • For detailed instructions on using this feature via the handheld programmer see Auto False Echo Suppression (2.4.8.1.) on page 100. Auto False Echo Suppression is designed to learn a specific environment (for example, a particular vessel with known obstructions), and in conjunction with Auto False Echo Suppression Range to remove false echoes appearing in front of the material echo.
Example after Auto False Echo Suppression Auto False Echo Suppression Range set to 2 m learned TVT Auto False Echo Suppression Range material echo default TVT false echo echo marker Measurement Range Near Range (2.4.1.) Near Range programs SITRANS LR560 to ignore the zone in front of the antenna. The default blanking distance is 27.8 cm (0.91 ft) from the sensor reference point. Near Range allows you to increase the blanking value from its factory default. But Auto False Echo Suppression (2.4.8.1.
Measurement Response Note: Units are defined in Unit (2.3.1.) and are in meters by default. Response Rate (2.3.6.1.) limits the maximum rate at which the display and output respond to changes in the measurement. There are three preset options: slow, medium, and fast. Once the real process fill/empty rate (m/min by default) is established, a response rate can be selected that is slightly higher than the application rate. Changing Response Rate resets Fill Rate/Min (2.3.6.2.), and Empty rate/Min (2.3.6.3.).
If the LOE condition persists beyond the time limit set in Loss of Echo (LOE) Timer (2.3.4.) the LCD displays the Maintenance Alarm icon, and the text region displays the fault code S: 0 and the text LOE. If two faults are present at the same time, the fault code, error text, and error icon for each fault are displayed alternately.

Appendix E: Communications Foundation Fieldbus (FF) Protocol SITRANS LR560 (FF) is a class 3IPS, 32L FF (H1) device. It supports publish and subscribe functionality as well as Backup LAS functionality. The full range of SITRANS LR560 functions is available only over an FF network. Foundation Fieldbus is an open industrial protocol. Full details about FF can be obtained from Fieldbus Foundation at www.fieldbus.org.

Glossary accuracy: degree of conformity of a measure to a standard or a true value. agitator: mechanical apparatus for mixing or aerating. A device for creating turbulence. algorithm: a prescribed set of well-defined rules or processes for the solution of a problem in a finite number of steps. ambient temperature: the temperature of the surrounding air that comes in contact with the enclosure of the device. Auto False-Echo Suppression Range: defines the endpoint of the Learned TVT distance. (See TVT.
Echo Confidence: describes the quality of an echo. Higher values represent higher quality. Echo threshold defines the minimum value required for an echo to be accepted as valid and evaluated. Echo Lock Window: a window centered on an echo in order to locate and display the echo’s position and true reading. Echoes outside the window are not immediately processed. Echo Marker: a marker that points to the processed echo. Echo Processing: the process by which the radar unit determines echoes.
radar: radar is an acronym for RAdio Detection And Ranging. A device that radiates electromagnetic waves and utilizes the reflection of such waves from distant objects to determine their existence or position. range: distance between a transmitter and a target. range extension: the distance below the zero percent or empty point in a vessel. repeatability: the closeness of agreement among repeated measurements of the same variable under the same conditions. shot: one transmit pulse or measurement.
