Introduction
The LSU 100 ultrasonic level transmitter is designed to be mounted above a liquid and will
measure the distance to the liquid surface.
When programmed with details of the vessel, sump or open channel, the LSU 100 will
compute level, contents or flow and give a 4-20mA signal proportional to the chosen
variable.
LSU 100 is a two wire 24V powered transmitter and may be connected to any suitable dc
power source using the factory fitted cable. The Flygt APP and FGC range of control units
are designed to be used with the LSU 100 transmitter in this way.
The LSU 100 transmitter may be mounted in a hazardous area provided that it is supplied
from a protected power supply.
For EX applications, it is the responsibility of the user to ensure suitable Intrinsically Safe
Barriers are installed.
