LVS and LVL Series
Adaptive, efficient, and essential. Siemens vibrating level switches detect high, low, and demand levels for liquids and solids. They perform in extreme conditions and benefit many industries.
Application highlights
Dry run protection
- SITRANS LVL100
- Very compact for confined space
- Easy installation
- Fault monitoring for corrosion, loss of vibration, and line break to piezo drive
Liquified gas
- SITRANS LVL200
- Low density of 0.5 g/cm3
- Large temperatures variations between -40°C to 30°C (-40 to 86°F)
- Fail safe and SIL2 certified
Sludge detection
- SITRANS LVS200 interface version
- Detection of sludge accumulation within water
- Fault monitoring for corrosion, loss of vibration, and line break to piezo drive
- Bulk density of solids > 50 g/l
Mining and aggregate
- SITRANS LVS300
- Plug chute detection
- Vibrating rod design prevents false alarms due to bridging materials
- Durable design to with stand harsh environment
