New Non-Contact Laser Level Transmitter

ABB introduces the LLT100 laser level transmitter that provides continuous, non-contact level measurement of any solid. This product meets the demands of process automation and inventory management in industries such as mining, aggregates, oil and gas, chemicals, food and beverages, power, pulp and paper, pharma, and water and waste water.
 
The LLT100 is a maintenance-free instrument that measures the storage level of any material, independent of its properties or conditions. Solid material is detectable up to 330 ft. Positioning applications, where the position of a tripper car is precisely measured, for instance, can be done at distances up to 650 ft.

With its narrow laser beam (at 100 ft ~ 7.9 in. spot wide), the LLT100 can avoid obstructions and be installed near vessel walls either in tanks or silos with mixing blades, grids, or obstructions. The LLT100 measures continuously and provides a rapid surface change tracking. The advanced signal processing function prevents the impact of falling material or splashing on measurement precision, as well as giving reliable measurement results in dusty, foggy, narrow, and mixing environment.

Easy to configure, fast installation, powered from the loop, HART communication makes the LLT100 convenient to use. It comes with an industrial IP 67/Nema4x and approved for hazardous areas (class 1/div. 1 (zone 1)) for use in challenging industrial environments.
