The LSG is the most sensitive continuous level detector available. Its high-performance solid scintillation crystal and GEN2000® electronics make it well suited for measuring level in difficult processes including chemical reactors and high pressure separators.

For use on thick-walled vessels and other applications with very low radiation fields.

Features

• Powerful GEN2000 electronics permits a wide range of setup and compensation options
• Minimizes source size required
• Adjustable mounting system simplifies aging Ion Chamber replacement

  Principles of Operation

  Radiation-based continuous level measurement works by directing a collimated beam of radiation through the vessel to a detector. As the process level rises, it shields the detector from the radiation. The more radiation the detector "sees", the lower the process level. The less radiation detected, the higher the process level. Process level is provided in the form of a current output.
