Long Body Ultrasonic Sensors

Ultrasonic sensors detect all sound-reflecting objects and measures the time from transmission to reception of a sound signal. Ultrasonic technology works well in certain applications where photoelectric sensors struggle with reliability. The target’s color, transparency and surface reflectivity are irrelevant.

Very large detection range
Intuitive setting of the detection range via pushbutton
Non-contact detection independent of color, transparency or surface characteristics of the object
Clearly visible LED for indicating switching status and echo

Description

Non-contact level detection of liquids and solids can present a challenge for some technologies. Laser distance measurement systems cannot accurately detect the level of clear liquids. With pinpoint light spots, these systems cannot account for uneven surfaces of solids such as mounding in receiving bins.

Ultrasonic sensors detect liquid and solid level without direct contact reliably.

Improve process stability and quality with continuous measurement, monitoring and feedback
Reduce cost by eliminating measuring probes
Increase product quality by eliminating contact contamination
