Ultrasonic level meter is an instrument that uses the relationship between the speed and time of ultrasonic wave propagation in the air to measure the liquid level. Its five major advantages are as follows, which help improve industrial safety:

Non-contact measurement: Ultrasonic level meter does not directly contact with the measured liquid, will not pollute the measured liquid, and will not be affected by corrosion, wear, etc. of the measured liquid. This non-contact measurement method not only ensures the quality and safety of the product, but is also particularly suitable for industries with high hygiene requirements such as food and pharmaceuticals. It also reduces the maintenance cost and failure rate of the instrument and extends its service life.

High measurement accuracy: Ultrasonic level meter can achieve high-precision measurement by measuring the time difference from the emission to the reception of the sound wave and calculating the liquid level height in combination with the speed of sound. The resolution of some models can reach 0.01%FS. This high-precision measurement is essential to ensure the stability and safety of industrial production.

Strong adaptability: The ultrasonic level meter is not affected by the characteristics of the measuring medium (such as viscosity, density, color, etc.) and pressure and other factors, and has strong adaptability and stability. This means that it can work stably under various complex working conditions and provide reliable liquid level information for industrial production.

Safe and reliable: The ultrasonic level meter has a high explosion-proof function, which can be completed explosion-proof or isolated explosion-proof, and is particularly suitable for the measurement of chemical raw materials and flammable liquids. At the same time, it can also directly output digital signals, which is convenient for reading and recording liquid level data, and can be connected to the automatic control system to achieve remote monitoring and control. These characteristics make ultrasonic level meters safer and more reliable in industrial production.

Easy installation and maintenance: The ultrasonic level meter is generally installed through the existing pipe opening on the tank top, which is particularly suitable for the commissioning of equipment in underground storage tanks. Normal production will not be affected during the installation process, and the instrument structure is simple and the maintenance workload is small. This convenient installation and maintenance method reduces the downtime and maintenance cost of industrial production.
