Introduction
About the SITRANS LU10
The SITRANS LU10 is a microprocessor based level monitor designed specifically for bulk
solids and liquid level measurement applications. A SITRANS LU10 level monitor, utilizing
a single Siemens Milltronics ultrasonic transducer, accurately monitors vessel material
level without material contact. By using an additional transducer for each vessel, the
SITRANS LU10 can monitor the material level in up to 10 vessels.
The SITRANS LU10 transmits electronic pulses to each scanned ultrasonic transducer.
The transducer converts the electronic pulses to ultrasonic pulses which are emitted
from the transducer face in a narrow beam. The SITRANS LU10 measures the time from
the pulse emission, to receiving the reflection (echo) from the material. Using the time
measured, the SITRANS LU10 calculates the distance from the transducer face to the
material.
The distance calculation is dependent upon the sound velocity within the vessel. When
Siemens Milltronics ultrasonic/temperature transducers are used, variable air
temperatures are independently compensated for each vessel. For superior air
temperature compensation, a TIB-9 card may be used with individual Siemens Milltronics
TS-3 temperature sensors for each vessel. A simple calibration feature compensates for
homogeneous (consistent composition) atmospheres other than air.
Notes:
• The SITRANS LU10 is to be used only in the manner outlined in this instruction
manual.
• This product is intended for use in industrial areas. Operation of this equipment in
a residential area may cause interference to several frequency based
communications.

Introduction
The SITRANS LU10 is capable of monitoring wheat in 60 m (200 ft) high silos, acetone in
45 gallon barrels, or almost anything in between, in any combination. (Ensure the
transducer selected for each vessel suits the material and measurement range required).
This material and measurement range versatility is accomplished by utilizing Siemens
Milltronics patented Sonic Intelligence®. Sonic Intelligence provides high measurement
reliability, regardless of changing conditions within the vessel monitored.
By utilizing ultrasonic echo ranging principles with Sonic Intelligence and velocity
compensation, the SITRANS LU10 provides outstanding measurement accuracy, usually
within 0.25% of range.
The distance calculation may be converted to space, material level, material volume, or
remaining vessel capacity Readings. The Reading chosen (and operating data) for each
vessel is displayed on the Liquid Crystal Display (LCD).
Up to three Siemens Milltronics Peripherals may be connected to the SITRANS LU10. The
LU AO, LU SAM and/or BIC-II, respectively provide analog output , relays, and RS-232 or
RS-422 communication interface, as programmed by the SITRANS LU10.
With the addition of a Siemens Milltronics SmartLinx protocol specific ‘plug in’
communications module, the SITRANS LU10 is compatible with popular industrial control
system standards.
Operator programming, via a Siemens Milltronics infrared programmer, is stored in non-
volatile memory, unaffected by power interruption. The infrared interface permits one
programmer to be used for any number of SITRANS LU10 level monitors. Upon
programming completion, the removable programmer may be locked away, thereby
securing all programming.

Installation
Connect the peripherals used, in a serial loop as follows:
Level System Synchronization
Avoid mounting the SITRANS LU10 near another ultrasonic level monitor. Likewise, when
more than one monitor is installed within a single plant / facility, ensure the transducer
cables of each system are run in separate grounded metal conduits. If this system
separation is impractical, or despite separation efforts measurement difficulties are
encountered, system synchronization may be required.
To synchronize the SITRANS LU10 with a SITRANS LU 02 or another SITRANS LU10
perform the following steps.
1. Mount the level monitors together in one cabinet.
2. Ensure the level monitors share a common power (mains) supply, and ground
(earth).
3. Interconnect the SYNC terminals of the level monitors to be synchronized.

Programming
Operator programmable features are identified by a Point Number and Parameter
Number. The Point Number refers to the Transducer (vessel) Number, Relay Number, mA
Output Number, or TS-3 Number as identified by the Point Type indicators. Parameter
Numbers have a preset Parameter Value for each Point Number.
Programming is accomplished by altering the preset Parameter Values as required to
obtain the RUN mode operation desired. All operator programmable features are defined
in the Quick Start Parameters, Application Parameters, and Enhancement Parameters
sections of this instruction manual.
