Product introduction:

As the name indicates, ultrasonic liquid level sensor measure distance by using ultrasonic waves. The sensor head emits an ultrasonic wave and receives the wave reflected back from the target. ultrasonic bin level sensor measure the distance to the target by measuring the time between the emission and reception.

 

Advantages and features of ultrasonic water tank level sensor products:

An ultrasonic level sensor is a sensor that uses the ultrasonic principle to measure the height of a liquid level. It has the advantages of non-contact, non-intrusive, high reliability, etc., and is widely used in industry, agriculture, commerce and other fields.

 
 

Non-contact, non-invasive:

The ultrasonic level meter does not come into direct contact with the liquid and does not interfere with the flow of the liquid. Facilitates the measurement of liquids that are susceptible to corrosion, contamination, or contain solid particles.

 
 
 

High reliability:

Ultrasonic level sensors have no moving parts, are compact, reliable, and independent of media properties, making them highly reliable. This is very advantageous for measuring liquids that have been exposed to harsh environments for long periods of time.

 
 
 

Wide measuring range:

Ultrasonic sensors can measure the depth or height of liquids, and the range of ultrasonic sensors can reach tens of meters. This is very advantageous for measuring the liquid level in large vessels.

 

 

Types of ultrasonic sensor：

 

 

Ultrasonic liquid level sensor can be divided into two types: integrated ultrasonic level gauges and split ultrasonic level gauges.

The integrated liquid level gauge is an electronic unit and a probe that are integrated into one unit. It is easy to install and can be easily installed on the top of the container.

The split level meter means that the probes of the electronic unit are connected to each other by cables. The probe can be installed on the top of the container. The electronic unit can flexibly choose other installation positions to facilitate reading, observation and operation.

Ultrasonic transducer mainly consists of the following parts:

 

 

Transmitter

Used to transmit ultrasonic pulses.

 

Receiver

Used to receive the reflected waves of ultrasonic pulses.

 

Signal processor

Used to calculate the liquid level height.

 

 

Ultrasonic liquid level sensors are widely used in various industries

Maintenance tips for ultrasonic equipment

 

 

Electronics are typically constructed from solid-state components and epoxy encapsulation. In cases where the sensor comes into contact with liquid, a coating may form on the sensor surface, so it is recommended that the sensor be inspected and cleaned regularly to ensure proper operation. Apart from this, no other maintenance operations are required.

If the pipes or vessels in which the equipment is installed need to be steam cleaned or cleaned with an abrasive cleaner, be sure to disassemble the entire equipment before cleaning by following these steps:

1. disconnect the power supply first to ensure safe operation;

2. open the housing cover to gain access to the inside of the device;

3. remove the power supply and control cables to avoid accidents such as circuit short circuit during cleaning;

4. loosen the thread of the sensor so that it can be easily removed.

When reinstalling, please strictly follow the installation steps to ensure that the device is firmly installed and connected correctly to avoid affecting the normal operation of the device.

 

FAQ:

Q: 1、how does ultrasonic liquid level sensor work?

A: Ultrasonic level sensors work by the "time of flight" principle using the speed of sound. The sensor emits a high-frequency pulse, generally in the 20 khz to 200 khz range, and then listens for the echo. The pulse is transmitted in a cone, usually about 6° at the apex.

Q: 2、can ultrasonic sensor measure water level?

A: The water and wastewater industry has many requirements for measuring the level of water in applications such as flumes, weirs, pipes, tanks, wells, basins, and cooling towers. Ultrasonic sensors are reliable, cost-effective instruments for these applications.

Q: 3、what is the ultrasonic liquid level meter?

A: Ultrasonic liquid level gauge is a digital liquid level instrument controlled by a microprocessor. During the measurement, the ultrasonic pulse is emitted by the sensor (transducer). The sound wave is received by the same sensor after being reflected by the liquid surface, and is converted into an electrical signal by the piezoelectric crystal. The time between the emission and reception of the sound wave from the sensor to the target is calculated. Measure the distance to the surface of a liquid. Due to the non-contact measurement, the measured medium is almost unlimited and can be widely used to measure the height of various liquid and solid materials.

Q: 4、what are ultrasonic level sensors used for measuring level of?

A: Ultrasonic level measurement with solidat sensors provides continuous, non-contact and maintenance-free level measurement of fluids, pastes, sludges and powdery to coarse bulk materials.

Q: 5、what are the problems with ultrasonic level sensors?

A: Some common disadvantages of conventional ultrasonic sensors include limited testing distance, inaccurate readings, and inflexible scanning methods.

Q: 6、how accurate is the ultrasonic water level sensor?

A: Ultrasonic sensors use sound waves to bounce off the surface of the liquid to tell you how much there is in the tank. These liquid level sensors can have a resolution as high as 0.1 in. (2.5mm) and an accuracy of 0.25% of the detected range (current reading).

Q: 7、what should i avoid with ultrasonic level sensors?

A: •foamy liquids/solids
•there are strong voltages, strong currents, and strong electromagnetic interference around you. Try to avoid high voltages, high currents, and strong electromagnetic interference.
•high winds and direct sun
•strong vibration
•scenes with highly volatile liquids and large amounts of water vapor
•easy to crystallize liquid
When encountering the above on-site environment, you should choose to use it carefully. The numerical accuracy of the measurement will decrease and the data may be unstable. It is generally not recommended to use ultrasonic liquid level meter for measurement.

Q: 8、how does an ultrasonic level detector measure level by ?

A: The receiver converts this ultrasonic pulse to an electrical signal pulse through the pulse generator. The time elapsed, or the reflection time is measured by the counter. This elapsed time has relation to the level to be measured. This elapsed time is converted to level by the control circuit.

Q: 9、what is the frequency of ultrasonic transducer?

A: Ultrasonic transducers operate at frequencies in the range of 30–500 khz for air-coupled applications. As the ultrasonic frequency increases, the rate of attenuation increases. Thus, low-frequency sensors (30–80 khz) are more effective for long range, while high-frequency sensors are more effective for short range.

Q: 10、how do i choose the right frequency for my ultrasonic transducer?

A: The optimal frequency for an ultrasonic device depends on the specific application and the material being used. Generally, higher frequencies are better for smaller objects and lower frequencies work better for larger objects.

Q: 11、what is the wavelength of the ultrasonic transducer?

A: Sound that is generated above the level of human hearing range is called ultrasound. Although ultrasound typically starts at 20 khz, most ultrasonic transducers start at 200 khz. Ultrasound, which is similar in nature to audible sound, has far shorter wavelengths and is far more suitable to detect small flaws.

Q: 12、what is the maximum range of ultrasonic sensor?

A: They do not measure farther than about 70 feet (21 meters). They do not measure at very high repetition rates. Due to speed of sound limitations the fastest rate is 200 hz at a max distance of about 24 inches. They do not work as accurately in vapor environments that change the speed of sound from that of air.

Q: 13、what are 3 disadvantages of using ultrasonic sensors?

A: Some common disadvantages of conventional ultrasonic sensors include limited testing distance, inaccurate readings, and inflexible scanning methods. All of these drawbacks, however, can be mitigated and even overcome with the right ndt tools and techniques.

Q: 14、how to increase the range of ultrasonic sensors?

A: To increase the measuring range with the help of several ultrasonic sensors use the possibility of synchronization or multiplexing of the sensors. In the synchronization mode, all connected sensors send the sound pulse at the same time and also receive it at the same time.
