With its modular design and intelligent algorithms, the LST200 is easy to install, commission and maintain and stable in use, decreasing total expenditure over the product’s lifetime.
Commissioning the LST200 is easy thanks to a set-up menu that guides customers through configuration within one minute. Operating the device is easy because the LST200 has a blue backlight that makes it highly visible even in strong sunlight or darkness in locations such as lagoons and settling ponds. Maintaining the device is easy because it offers real-time echo waveform and diagnostic messaging for efficient troubleshooting.
High stability is achieved by a sophisticated algorithm that enables the LST200 to detect and automatically compensate for any instability in the strength of the ultrasonic signal. This makes the LST200 a good choice in process basins for aeration, chlorine contact, skimmer tanks, sedimentation and flotation thickeners where there can be unstable surface echo from foam or turbulence.
An intelligent algorithm with noise filtering makes the LST200 useful in wet wells, lift stations and pumping stations because it is immune to noise from heavy equipment such as variable speed drives. Temperature compensation is another key feature, with the LST200 offering reliable accuracy that is better than+/-3mm or 0.25% of full span.
Submersible in water, the LST200 can survive flooding. It has a waterproof rating of IP68 relevant for the water and wastewater industries. A non-contact instrument made from polycarbonate, it is resistant to process liquids such as mild acid and base, chloride and oxidizer, making the routine work for cleaning unnecessary. For open channel flow measurement, built-in equations and supporting software prevents the need for any manual calculations, saving the user time and effort.
