Description
Ultrasonic sensors detect all sound-reflecting objects and measures the time from transmission to reception of a sound signal. The target’s color, transparency and surface reflectivity are irrelevant.
Whether in tanks or silos, whether liquids, bulk material or individual objects: The universal level and distance measurement using ultrasound is reliable and accurate.
However, even if there is no direct contact with the medium, aggressive vapours and fumes can severely affect the function and life of a sensor. But thanks to ifm’s new full-metal ultrasonic sensor, this is now a thing of the past. From the diaphragm to the connector, the sensor is completely enclosed in resistant high-grade stainless steel. Thus, it is resistant to external influences and benefits from an extended service life.
