- Output function normally open / normally closed programmable
- Non-contact detection independent of color, transparency or surface characteristics of the object
Non-Contact and Continuous Level Measurement
Non-contact level detection of liquids and solids can present a challenge for some technologies. Laser distance measurement systems cannot accurately detect the level of clear liquids. With pinpoint light spots, these systems cannot account for uneven surfaces of solids such as mounding in receiving bins.
Ultrasonic sensors detect liquid and solid levels without direct contact reliably.
- Improve process stability and quality with continuous measurement, monitoring, and feedback
- Reduce cost by eliminating measuring probes
- Increase product quality by eliminating contact contamination
Detection of Transparent Objects
Challenging objects such as transparent bottles, glass, and grid-structured targets are always difficult to detect using optical systems and high-precision cameras are simply too expensive.
Ultrasonic sensors can solve these applications, regardless of color, structure, sound absorption properties, and transparency. It offers an unsurpassed cost-performance ratio compared to other systems.
- Reduce unscheduled downtime due to unreliable switching of other systems
- Improve process stability and quality
- Reduce purchase, installation, and inventory costs
Roll Diameter Measurement
Films, papers and other web materials often have reflective coatings and colors that present a challenge when developing a single solution to measure roll diameter of varied materials. False switching and measuring inaccuracy can result in failure to correctly detect the end of the roll.
Ultrasonic sensors solve this application reliably.
- Reduce unplanned downtime when the roll runs out unexpectedly
- Reduce the time for planned stops by eliminating sensor adjustment between rolls or materials
- Reduce material loss
Detection of Sound-Absorbing Objects
When measuring irregular or sound-absorbing objects, standard diffuse ultrasonic sensors might not receive a return echo. For such applications, retro-reflective sensors can be used. The emitted sound is returned from a defined reflector and received by the sensor. An object is detected when it interrupts the reflected signal regardless of object orientation or surface material.
Ultrasonic Sensor Technology
Ultrasonic sensors detect all sound-reflecting objects and measure the time from transmission to reception of a sound signal. The target's color, transparency and surface reflectivity are irrelevant.
