Industrial Measurements Submersible Vs Ultrasonic Liquid Level Sensors

When customers are looking to monitor the liquid level in a tank, sump, or pit they will install a liquid level sensor. The application will determine which style of the liquid level transmitter the customer will have to purchase in order to get accurate readings and long-term life out of the liquid level transmitter 

One of the technologies for a liquid level sensor is ultrasonic; the ultrasonic technology used with the liquid level transmitter is the perfect solution for monitoring chemical tanks that have vapor present. With vapor, foam or condensate the ultrasonic liquid level sensor is the wrong solution because it will bounce off the vapor blanket or get absorbed into the foam within the tank or sump. For any applications that have these parameters involved the customer should look into RADAR liquid level sensors or the submersible style liquid level transmitter as they will not be as unreliable as the ultrasonic liquid level sensor.

The submersible liquid level sensor is submersed in the chemical and sits on the bottom of the chemical tank which is why it isn’t influenced by the atmosphere above the liquid level. Available in corrosion resistant plastic bodies the 100 series is perfect for continuously monitoring the chemical tank level.

The Ultrapro series ultrasonic liquid level sensor is one of the best options available on the market. It can be mounted into a bulkhead fitting or threaded flange that would be located on the top of the bulk chemical storage tank for continuously monitoring the chemical liquid level using it. The customer must provide the tank size in order to select the best instrument they need for their firm. They must also ensure that the transducer is powerful enough on the Ultrapro series ultrasonic liquid level sensor.

The Ultrapro series ultrasonic liquid level sensor is the perfect solution for a liquid level transmitter that will be mounted on the top of a tank of water or non-fuming chemicals. It features a user-friendly push button set up that will prevent any lengthy programming that is required on other liquid level transmitters such as radar or differential pressure sensors.
