Ultrasonic level measurement
In non-contact ultrasonic level measurement, the sensor emits ultrasonic pulses in the direction of the medium, which then reflects them back.
The elapsed time from emission to reception of the signals is proportional to the level in the tank. Level sensors based on this measuring principle are ideal for simple standard applications, both for liquids and for solids.
The advantages
Non-contact ultrasonic sensors operate independently of product properties and even penetrate dusty atmospheres.
Application in liquids
Sensors with frequencies between 30 and 70 kHz are used for these applications. They operate independent of product properties and are ideal for water/waste water applications and the measurement of slightly corrosive acids and lyes. Also applications in gas-Ex areas can be equipped with these sensors.
Applications in bulk solids
Sensors with frequencies between 10 to 30 kHz are used for these applications. The lower switching frequency enables a considerably better penetration of dusty atmosphere. An adjustment with medium is not necessary. For applications in dust-Ex areas, approved sensors are available.
