Introduction
While the SITRANS LU10 is typically used to monitor material level in open or closed
vessels, any process which requires a distance measurement (within the system range)
is a candidate for SITRANS LU10 application.
Refer to
Technical Reference Application Examples for detailed descriptions of a small
sample of process measurement requirements to which the SITRANS LU10 may be
applied.
Throughout this manual (unless stated otherwise) references to material level also apply
to any material or object surface to be monitored by the SITRANS LU10.

tronics SmartLinx module.
Speed
Fast 16/32 bit microprocessor at 16.7 MHz clock speed.
1 vessel (point) per second scanning speed capability.
Reliability
Surface Mount Technology (SMT) also provides for full features in a com-
pact design. Sonic Intelligence® ensures all measurements are accurate
and reliable. Immune to power interruptions, all programming is stored
indefinitely. Dynamic operating data is retained for one hour and updated
immediately on power resumption.
