1.6 Security information
Siemens provides products and solutions with industrial security functions that support the
secure operation of plants, systems, machines, and networks.
In order to protect plants, systems, machines and networks against cyber threats, it is
necessary to implement – and continuously maintain – a holistic, state-of-the-art industrial
security concept. Siemens’ products and solutions only form one element of such a concept.
Customer is responsible to prevent unauthorized access to its plants, systems, machines and
networks. Systems, machines and components should only be connected to the enterprise
network or the internet if and to the extent necessary and with appropriate security measures
(e.g. use of firewalls and network segmentation) in place.
Additionally, Siemens’ guidance on appropriate security measures should be taken into
account. You can find more information about industrial security by visiting:
http://www.siemens.com/industrialsecurity.
Siemens’ products and solutions undergo continuous development to make them more secure.
Siemens strongly recommends to apply product updates as soon as available and to always
use the latest product versions. Use of product versions that are no longer supported, and
failure to apply latest updates may increase customer’s exposure to cyber threats.

3.1 SITRANS LR250 overview
WARNING
Loss of protection
Danger to personnel, system and environment can result from improper use of the device.
●SITRANS LR250 is to be used only in the manner outlined in this manual, otherwise
protection provided by the device may be impaired.
SITRANS LR250 is a 2-wire 25 GHz pulse radar level transmitter for continuous monitoring of
liquids and slurries in storage vessels including high pressure and high temperature, to a range
of 20 meters (66 feet). It is ideal for small vessels, material such as chemicals, food, beverages,
solvents (including those of corrosive or aggressive nature), and low dielectric media.
The device consists of an electronic circuit coupled to a permanently attached antenna and
either a threaded or flange type process connection.
This device supports HART communication protocol. Signals are processed using Process
Intelligence which has been field-proven in over 1,000,000 applications worldwide (ultrasonic
and radar).

4.1 Basic safety information
Note
Material compatibility
Siemens can provide you with support concerning selection of sensor components wetted by
process media. However, you are responsible for the selection of components. Siemens
accepts no liability for faults or failures resulting from incompatible materials.
WARNING
Unsuitable connecting parts
Risk of injury or poisoning.
In case of improper mounting, hot, toxic, and corrosive process media could be released at the
connections.
● Ensure that connecting parts (such as flange gaskets and bolts) are suitable for connection
and process media.
WARNING
Exceeded maximum ambient or process media temperature
Danger of explosion in hazardous areas.
Device damage.
● Make sure that the maximum permissible ambient and process media temperatures of the
device are not exceeded.
SITRANS LR250 with mA/HART
Compact Operating Instructions, 11/2019, A5E48453192-AA 17

4.1.1 Unsuitable cables, cable glands and/or plugs
WARNING
Unsuitable cables, cable glands and/or plugs
Risk of explosion in hazardous areas.
●Use only cable glands/plugs that comply with the requirements for the relevant type of
protection.
● Tighten the cable glands in accordance with the torques specified in Installation
instructions (Page 23).
● Close unused cable inlets for the electrical connections.
● When replacing cable glands, only use cable glands of the same type.
● After installation, check that the cables are seated firmly.
WARNING
Incorrect conduit system
Risk of explosion in hazardous areas as result of open cable inlet or incorrect conduit system.
● In the case of a conduit system, mount a spark barrier at a defined distance from the device
input. Observe national regulations and the requirements stated in the relevant approvals.
4.1.2 Pressure applications
DANGER
Pressure applications
Danger to personnel, system and environment will result from improper disassembly.
●Never attempt to loosen, remove, or disassemble process connection while vessel
contents are under pressure.
WARNING
Pressure applications
Danger to personnel, system and environment can result from improper installation.
●Improper installation may result in loss of process pressure.
Installing/mounting
4.1 Basic safety information
SITRANS LR250 with mA/HART
18 Compact Operating Instructions, 11/2019, A5E48453192-AA

WARNING
Exceeded maximum permissible operating pressure
Danger of injury or poisoning.
The maximum permissible operating pressure depends on the device version. The device can
be damaged if the operating pressure is exceeded. Hot, toxic and corrosive process media
could be released.
● Make sure that the device is suitable for the maximum permissible operating pressure of
your system.
Note
●The process connection tag shall remain with the process pressure boundary assembly.
(The process pressure boundary assembly comprises the components that act as a barrier
against pressure loss from the process vessel: that is, the combination of process
connection body and emitter, but normally excluding the electrical enclosure). In the event
the device package is replaced, the process connection tag shall be transferred to the
replacement unit.
● Representative samples of this device have been hydrostatically tested, meeting or
exceeding the requirement of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code and the
European Pressure Equipment Directive.
4.1.2.1 Pressure Equipment Directive, PED, 14/68/EU
Siemens Level Transmitters with flanged, threaded, or sanitary clamp type process mounts
have no pressure-bearing housing of their own and, therefore, do not come under the Pressure
Equipment Directive as pressure or safety accessories (see EU Commission Guideline A-08
and A-20).
4.2 Installation location requirements
WARNING
Aggressive atmospheres
Danger to personnel, system and environment can result from unsuitable environment.
●Provide an environment suitable to the housing rating and materials of construction.

NOTICE
Direct sunlight
Device damage.
The device can overheat or materials become brittle due to UV exposure.
●Protect the device from direct sunlight.
● Make sure that the maximum permissible ambient temperature is not exceeded. Refer to
the information in Power (Page 53).
4.3 Proper mounting
4.3.1 Mounting location
Note
●Correct location is key to a successful application.
● Avoid reflective interference from vessel walls and obstructions by following guidelines in
this chapter.
NOTICE
Incorrect mounting
The device can be damaged, destroyed, or its functionality impaired through improper
mounting.
●Before installing ensure there is no visible damage to the device.
● Make sure that process connectors are clean, and suitable gaskets and glands are used.
● Mount the device using suitable tools. Refer to the information in Installation instructions
(Page 23).
Note
● On devices with a removable head, there is no limit to the number of times a device can be
rotated without damage.
● When mounting, orient the front or back of the device towards the closest vessel wall or
obstruction.
● Do not rotate the enclosure after programming and vessel calibration, otherwise an error
may occur, caused by a polarity shift of the transmit pulse.
