d) This level probing device is only permitted for installation inside enclosed containers. The
installer/user of this device shall ensure that it is at least 10 km from the Penticton radio
astronomy station (British Columbia latitude: 49° 19' 12" N, longitude: 119° 37'12" W). For
devices not meeting this 10 km separation (e.g. the Okanagan Valley, British Columbia)
the installer/ user must coordinate with and obtain the written concurrence of the
Director of the Penticton radio astronomy station before the equipment can be installed
or operated. The Penticton contact is Tel: 250-493-2277/ fax: 250-493-7767. (In case of
difficulty, the Manager, Radio Equipment Standards, Industry Canada, may also be
contacted.)

WARNING: SITRANS LR560 is to be used only in the manner outlined in this manual,
otherwise protection provided by the equipment may be impaired.
Note: 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.
SITRANS LR560 is a 2-wire 78 GHz FMCW radar level transmitter for continuous monitoring of
solids in vessels to a range of 100 m (329 ft). The plug and play performance is ideal for all solids
applications, including those with extreme dust and high temperatures to +200 °C (+392 °F).
The device is an electronic circuit coupled to a lens antenna and flange for quick and easy
positioning.
SITRANS LR560 supports HART communication protocol, and SIMATIC PDM software. Signals
are processed using Process Intelligence.
