”In our view, level measurement creates major challenges for users. Harsh operating environments, difficult conditions in which to take measurements and to some extent problematic materials under measurement mean that users require high-precision instrumentation that meets specific needs. In 2011, Siemens introduced the non-contact, plug & play Sitrans LR560 which operates at 78 GHz and delivers outstanding results with bulk solids. The new SIL2-compliant Sitrans LR250 version with encapsulated (PVDF) antenna is ideal for liquid measurement in the chemical industry. Naturally, as we move into 2012 and especially with an eye on Achema, we are working on other innovative, user-friendly level measurement technology.”Dr. Jürgen Spitzer, Head of Process Instrumentation at the Siemens Industry Automation Division
