Installation

Mounting

Inspect all cartons and packaging for possible damage during shipment, before removing the SITRANS LU01 and associated equipment.

1.Loosen the 6 enclosure lid (captivated) screws and swing the lid open.

2.Remove the 4 Board B mounting screws (outer corners) and remove the circuit board assembly.

3.Drill required holes in the enclosure bottom to meet enclosure cable/conduit entry requirements.

4.Attach the enclosure to the selected mounting surface (use four predrilled screw holes).

5.Attach the conduits/cable hubs to the enclosure. (Do not apply undue force.)

6.Reinstall the circuit board assembly.

•Non metallic enclosure does not provide grounding between connections. Use grounding type bushings and jumpers.

•This product is susceptable to electrostatic shock. Follow proper grounding procedures.

Transducer Mounting

Objects near the transducer face cannot be reliably detected. Mount the transducer above the highest material level (away from the nearest monitored object) by the following Nearest Distance.

Nearest Distance

Transducer Types

0.5 m (1.65 ft)1

ST-H, ST-25, XRS-5, XCT-8, XCT-12, XPS-10, XPS-15, ST-50

0.66 m (2.17 ft)

XPS-30, XPS-40

0.99 m (3.25 ft)

ST-100, LR-21, XLT-30, XLS-30

1.32m (4.33 ft)

LR-13, XLT-60, XLS-60

1.This is the recommended minimum distance. However, it can be reduced under certain circum- stances. Please check the appropriate transducer manual for details.

LU01 specifications

The Siemens LU01 is a state-of-the-art train control and signaling system designed to enhance the safety and efficiency of rail networks. This sophisticated system leverages advanced technologies and innovative features to ensure seamless train operations, lower maintenance costs, and improved overall performance.

One of the main features of the Siemens LU01 is its implementation of the European Train Control System (ETCS). ETCS is a vital component in modernizing rail infrastructure across Europe, aiming to standardize various train control systems for enhanced interoperability among different national networks. The LU01 facilitates the integration of ETCS Level 1 and Level 2, allowing for both trackside equipment and onboard systems to work in harmony to manage train movements effectively.

Additionally, the LU01 employs a decentralized architecture that enhances system reliability and minimizes downtime. This design means that it can operate even in the case of individual component failures, ensuring that train operations remain uninterrupted. Furthermore, the LU01 utilizes advanced diagnostic tools and predictive maintenance technologies to monitor system performance continuously. This proactive approach allows for early identification of potential issues and timely maintenance, which contributes to reducing operational costs.

Another critical characteristic of the Siemens LU01 is its capability for real-time data transmission. The system integrates wireless communication technologies, enabling constant connectivity between trains and control centers. This feature allows for real-time updates on train positions, speeds, and other critical operational data, thereby enhancing situational awareness for train operators and maintaining optimal schedules.

Moreover, the LU01 is designed to be compatible with existing rail infrastructure, ensuring a smooth transition for railway operators looking to upgrade their signaling systems without extensive overhauls. This adaptability makes it an appealing choice for both new projects and retrofitting existing rail networks.

In summary, the Siemens LU01 stands out for its cutting-edge features, including support for ETCS, decentralized architecture, real-time data communication, and compatibility with legacy systems. With these technologies and characteristics, the LU01 significantly contributes to the safety, efficiency, and sustainability of modern rail transport systems, making it a pivotal solution in the evolution of railway operations.
