• Beam angle is the width of the cone
where the energy density is half of the
peak energy density.
• The peak energy density is directly in front
of and in line with the antenna.
• There is a signal transmitted outside the
beam angle, therefore false targets may
be detected.
Emission cone
• Keep emission cone free of interference
from ladders, pipes, I-beams or filling
streams.
• Avoid central locations on tall, narrow ves-
sels.
Environment
• Provide easy access for viewing the dis-
play and programming via the hand pro-
grammer.
• Provide an environment suitable to the
housing rating and materials of construction.
WARNINGS:
• Installation shall be performed only by qualified personnel and in accor-
dance with local governing regulations.
• Never attempt to loosen, remove, or disassemble process connection or
instrument housing while vessel contents are under pressure.
• The user is responsible for the selection of bolting and gasket materials
which will fall within the limits of the flange and its intended use and which
are suitable for the service conditions.
• Improper installation may result in loss of process pressure.
Note: SITRANS LR560 units are pressure tested, meeting or exceeding the requirements of
the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code and the European Pressure Equipment Directive.

Special Conditions for Safe Use
The ‘X’ suffix to the certificate number relates to the following special condition(s) for safe use:
• Parts of the enclosure may be non-conducting and may generate an ignition-capable
level of electrostatic charge under certain extreme conditions. The user should ensure
that the equipment is not installed in a location where it may be subjected to external
conditions (such as high-pressure steam), which might cause a build-up of electrostatic
charge on non-conducting surfaces.
• The end user must ensure that an ingress protection of at least IP65 is maintained at
each entry to the enclosure by use of a blanking element or cable entry device that meets
the requirements of the protection concepts type ‘n’ or increased safety ‘e’ or flameproof
‘d’.
• The supply to the equipment shall be rated for a prospective short-circuit current of not
more than 10 kA and shall protected by a suitably-rated fuse.
