LM80 SL3
Key Features and Advantages
Application Areas
- Mining and Aggregates: Monitors stockpiles of coal, ores, and gravel in bunkers and silos. The 100 m range and dust-resistant design ensure precise measurements in harsh conditions.
- Oil & Gas: Deployed in offshore platforms and refineries to measure levels of crude oil, fuels, and chemicals. The ATEX certification guarantees safe operation in explosive environments.
- Food and Beverage: Tracks inventory of grains, powders, and liquids in silos and tanks. The stainless steel housing and IP67 rating meet hygiene standards for food processing facilities.
- Chemicals and Pharmaceuticals: Measures corrosive liquids and bulk solids in reactors and storage vessels. The non-contact design eliminates contamination risks.
- Water and Wastewater: Monitors sludge levels in treatment plants and raw water in reservoirs. The Modbus RTU interface enables integration with centralized control systems.

Installation and Maintenance
Before installing the LM80 SL3, verify the power supply matches the 24 V DC input requirement. Clean the mounting surface and ensure proper grounding to minimize electromagnetic interference. Align the transmitter’s laser beam perpendicular to the target surface, using the built-in laser pointer for precise aiming. For hazardous areas, confirm the ATEX/IECEx certification aligns with site requirements. Mount the transmitter using the stainless steel mounting plate or Tri-Clover fitting, depending on the application.
- Routine Inspections: Quarterly checks include inspecting the lens for dust or debris and verifying LED status indicators. Clean the lens with a soft, dry cloth to maintain optical clarity.
- Sensor Calibration: The LM80 SL3 requires no periodic calibration, but annual checks using a reference target are recommended to ensure accuracy.
- Firmware Updates: Periodically update the transmitter’s firmware using ABB’s official software to access new features and bug fixes.
- Environmental Checks: In high-dust environments, inspect the dust tube for blockages and clean as needed. For humid conditions, ensure the heated optics option is operational.
