Overview
The Flowline Ultrasonic 004383 level transmitter is a non-contact ultrasonic sensor designed for continuous monitoring of liquid levels in industrial applications. The ultrasonic level transmitter emits a high frequency acoustic pulse from its transducer, which travels through the air gap, reflects against the liquid surface and returns to the transducer. This technology provides precise, maintenance-free measurement without touching the process fluid, making it ideal for corrosive, chemical, or hazardous liquids.
Key Features
- Non-contact ultrasonic measurement technology eliminates wear and maintenance
- Compatible with chemical, water, wastewater, and petroleum-based liquids
- DC current operation for flexible integration into control systems
- Offered in general purpose and intrinsically safe versions, the ultrasonic level transmitter provides reliable level measurement of non-foaming chemical, water, wastewater and petroleum based liquids in ambient tank or sump applications from 1-12 meters.
- Analog signal output for integration with PLCs and control systems
- Compact design suitable for tanks, sumps, and process vessels
