Airmar Technology Corporation, has introduced their ultrasonic ART15 Airducer®, an air transducer that provides long-range level measurement of both solids and liquids, at a low-cost.
With a 60-meter (197 feet) range, the ART15 delivers longer distance level measurement performance without the high cost of radar technology.
Ideal applications for the ART15 include silos, large wells, waste water facilities, large capacity tanks and river crossings/bridges. The ART15, which also features a built-in thermistor for providing ambient temperature, requires minimal maintenance and is unaffected by color, object transparency, or dark environments.
Tanya Shenk, Industrial Products Sales Manager at Airmar, commented, “Most ultrasonic air transducers on the market offer short- to mid-range level measurement, but the options for long-range are minimal.
“As a result, users requiring long-range measurement had no option but to purchase costly radar sensors to meet their needs. With the ART15 Airducer, long-range level measurement can be achieved ultrasonically for a fraction of the cost.”
