Ultrasonic level sensor is a microprocessor controlled digital level gauge, used to measure the height of liquids, tank height, and material position. In the measurement, pulsed ultrasonic waves are emitted by the sensor (transducer), the pulse passes through the air, reflects on the liquid or object surface and returns to the sensor, where it is converted into an electrical signal. The time between the transmission and reception of the sound wave is used to calculate the distance from the transducer to the object to be measured and to obtain the height of the liquid level.
Because the ultrasonic level sensor does not contact with the liquid, its performance is not affected by corrosive and erosive chemical properties and it will not contaminate the measured medium, so the measured medium is almost unlimited, can be widely used in a variety of liquid and solid materials height measurement and real-time feedback of liquid level information, achieving intelligent monitoring and management.
Ultrasonic level sensor has a wide range of applications, covering industrial production, environmental protection, daily life and other fields.
Industrial applications
Chemical industry: used to monitor the liquid level in reaction kettles and storage tanks to ensure safe production.
Water treatment plant: used to monitor the level of sewage treatment tanks, clean water tanks, etc., to ensure the smooth running of the water treatment process.
Food and beverage industry: used for liquid level detection in raw material storage, finished product storage, etc. to ensure food safety and hygiene.
Pharmaceutical industry: in all aspects of drug production, the precise control of the liquid is crucial, ultrasonic level meter can provide accurate data support.
Oil and gas industry: For oil wells, storage tanks and other facilities, the level meter is one of the essential safety monitoring tools.
Life applications
Smart home system: In the smart irrigation system, the ultrasonic level meter can automatically adjust the time and amount of watering, to realize the purpose of water saving.
Rainwater collection system: help users to know the capacity status of rainwater barrels, automatically start the drainage or stop the collection function.
Other Applications
Weather station: used to monitor the water level changes of rivers, lakes and other natural water bodies, providing data support for flood and drought prevention.
