Level Measurement
Ultra Sonic Level Measurement – Bin Master – USBM
The BinMaster SmartSonic ultrasonic sensor is used for continuous non-contact level measurement in tanks, bins, silos and conveyors. It works by transmitting an ultrasonic pulse of pressurized air to the surface of the material in a vessel. The pulse reflects off the material and returns to the sensor in the form of an echo that is received by a microphone. The sensor then sends a 4 –20 mA analog output signal to record the measurement directly to an existing control system or display module, and can send data to a PC running utility and diagnostic software. For those users who routinely utilize Modbus in their operation, Modbus RTU communications are available.
