0..5v / 4..20mA /
Modbus RS485

Principle of Operation
A small ultrasonic sensor is clamped or bonded to the outside base of
the vessel. The system calculates the height of the liquid in the tank
from the time taken for the signal to be transmitted and then received
from the liquid surface. Signals from the transducer are fed into the
processor and then output to a separate system. The package is supplied as a sensor / processor pair.
A temperature integrate ultrasonic sensor is available offering compensation for the effects of varying temperatures.
Maximum measurement distance = 3000 mm
