Page 72: Relays
SITRANS LUT400 comes with extensive control and alarm functions described below. General introduction Three relays are provided on the SITRANS LUT400. Each relay may be independently assigned to one function (one or more functions for alarms), and has a corresponding status icon on the LCD.

HART, contact your Siemens representative. Discrete Inputs SITRANS LUT400 has two discrete inputs to trigger or alter the way SITRANS LUT400 controls devices. A Backup Level Override, Pump Interlock, or a Switch (DI) Alarm can be configured using discrete inputs, and discrete input logic can be reversed if necessary for the application.
Page 78: Level Override Conditions
Pump Interlocks Discrete inputs can be used to supply pump information to the SITRANS LUT400 to set actions that will occur when a pump is determined to be in a failed state. Pump Control Interlocks For an example of how to configure a pump interlock, see page 87.
Page 79: Discrete Input Logic
Discrete Input Logic Discrete input logic affects the reaction of the discrete input. Normal state is standard operation, with the SITRANS LUT400 sensing the material level and controlling the pumps. The contacts of the signalling device connected to the discrete inputs may be normally- open or normally closed.

Page 266: Echo Selection
TVT curve just once, a loss of echo may occur. The SITRANS LUT400, with it’s advanced tracking ability, can find and track the real echo amongst stationary clutter echoes. Therefore, even if the echo drops below the tvt curve, it can be identified with near certainty for approximately 30 seconds.
Page 267: Algorithm
Confidence (3.2.9.2.) describes the quality of an echo. Higher values represent higher quality. Echo Threshold Echo Threshold (2.12.2.2.) defines the minimum confidence value required for an echo to be accepted as valid and evaluated.

• For detailed instructions on using this feature via the local push buttons, see Shaper Mode (2.12.3.4.) on page 185. Communications for SITRANS LUT400 (HART) Manual (7ML19985NE01) False echoes can be caused by an obstruction in the transducer shot path (such as pipes, ladders, chains).
Page 269: Measurement Range
Distance Measurement Range Near Range Near Range (2.2.4.) programs SITRANS LUT400 to ignore the area in front of the transducer. The default blanking distance is 27.8 cm (0.91 ft) from the sensor reference point. Near Range allows you to increase the blanking value from its factory default. But Shaper Mode (2.12.3.4.) is generally recommended in preference to extending the blanking...

Damping Filter, therefore, if readings are slow to respond to changes, check that Fill and Empty Rates are set to values greater than or equal to the desired Response Rate. Page 262 SITRANS LUT400 (HART) – OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS A5E33329501...

[The PV region on the LUI display will show dashes (– – – – – – –) when a fault that causes fail-safe is present, and will return to the current reading when the fault is cleared.] A5E33329501 SITRANS LUT400 (HART) – OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Page 263...
Page 272: Distance Calculation
The sound velocity of the transmission medium is affected by the type, temperature, and vapor pressure of the gas or vapor present. As preset, the SITRANS LUT400 assumes the vessel atmosphere is air at +20 °C (+68 °F). Unless altered, the sound velocity used for the distance calculation is 344.1 m / s (1129 ft / s).
Page 273: Volume Calculation
Volume Calculation 2.6.Volume The SITRANS LUT400 provides a variety of volume calculation features (see If the vessel does not match any of the eight preset vessel shape calculations, a Universal Volume calculation may be used. Use the level/volume graph or chart provided by the vessel fabricator (or create one based on the vessel dimensions).

PMD fabricator (or create one based on the PMD or channel dimensions). The SITRANS LUT400 supports Universal curved flow calculation. This calculation creates a cubic spline approximation of the head/flow curve, providing best results if the curve is non-linear, and there are no sharp angles.
Page 276: Method Of Flow Calculation
Method of Flow Calculation The SITRANS LUT400 can be programmed to use either of two methods for calculating flow from the head measurement: absolute or ratiometric. The result is the same regardless of the method used. The main difference is the information that must be entered in order for the 2.
