Principle of Ultrasonic solid level meter
Ultrasonic level sensors for solid objects
follow a principle similar to those for liquids but the measuring object, in
this case, is solids. The ultrasonic waves produced by these sensors strike the
level of any solid and get deflected backward. The sensors measure the echo
time taken by these waves and calculate the distance and thus the solid level
accordingly.
Features of Ultrasonic solid level
transmitter
-
1- These level sensors can detect the level of a
wide range of solid objects from a distance of up to 20 meters.
-
2- No physical contact with the solid is
required.
-
3- Precise level measurement in a wide
range of temperature conditions.
-
4- Strong ability of anti-interference.
-
Digital level transmitters with output 4-20mA, possible with HART, MODBUS or PROFIBUS-DP
Application of ultrasonic level transmitter
These soild level sensors can be used for bulk solids
and thus find its application for storage tanks, food industries, sumps,
industrial refrigeration, for boreholes and etc. These sensors can be used to
locate the position of fish and scuba divers in seas and the location of
submarines below water level are also possible with these ultrasonic sensors.
