Ultrasonic Level Measurement USonic Series

Product catalog summary
Overview: The USonic™ Series Ultrasonic Level Transmitter is a two-wire loop-powered device with HART® communication, designed for level measurement in various industrial applications. It features intrinsic safety and explosion-proof designs, pending approvals, and offers easy setup via PC software or HART Communicator.
Key Features:
  • SMARTGain™ Technology: Automatically ignores internal obstructions without user adjustments, enhancing measurement accuracy.
  • Full Tank Measurement: Capable of measuring levels to the very top of the vessel, even when the transducer is recessed in a 2-inch ID nozzle.
  • Bench Configuration: Allows calibration without moving process material levels.
  • Versatile Measurements: Supports level, distance, volume, and open channel flow measurements with integrated software.
  • User-Friendly Interface: Menu-driven configuration with an integral display and environmentally sealed keypad.
  • Hazardous Area Installation: Suitable for Class 1 Div. 1, Zone 0 environments with intrinsic safety or explosion-proof designs.
Specifications:
  • Input Power: 19 to 30 VDC, with a minimum of 19 VDC required at 4 mA.
  • Output Signal: 2-wire, 4-20mA, HART (isolated).
  • Range: 1 to 30 ft. (0.3 to 9.1m).
  • Accuracy: +/- 0.15% or 0.2 inch (5 mm) of sensor range.
  • Ambient Temperature Limits: -40°F to 158°F (-40°C to 70°C).
  • Approvals: FM, FMc, CE, ATEX, IEC EX for hazardous locations.
Installation and Configuration:
  • Mounting: Compact design allows mounting in any 2-inch nozzle, with options for NPT or BSP fittings.
  • Quick Start-up: Simple configuration process involving selection of input type, configuration units, tank height, and LRV/URV settings.
  • Advanced Configuration: Allows conversion of level to volume and includes user-defined system settings and diagnostics.
Additional Information: The USonic™ Series is designed for ease of use and reliability in challenging environments, providing accurate and consistent measurements with minimal user intervention.

Ultrasonic Level Measurement USonic Series-1

DATA SHEET Two-Wire Loop Powered, HART® 30 ft. Range (9.1 meter) Intrinsic Safety and Explosion Proof designs and Approvals (pending) Easy set-up Via PC software or HART Communicator Menu driven configuration via integral display SMARTGain™ Automatically ignores most internal obstructions No user adjustments required Full Tank Measurement Transducer can be recessed in a 2-inch ID, or larger, nozzle to allow level measurements to the very top of the vessel. Bench Configuration Eliminates the need to move process material levels for calibration. Level or Open Channel Flow measurements Integrated software supports measurement in Level, Distance, Volume or Flow Affordable, 2-Wire Level Transmitter with the performance and features of premium, line-powered systems. 2-inch Nozzle Mounting Compact transducer design allows mounting in any 2-inch nozzle. It also allows for a recessed nozzle mounting enabling level to be read to the very top of the vessel. SMARTGain™ (SMARTGain™) Eliminates interfering signals from agitators and other internal vessel obstructions without the need to empty the vessel and without operator intervention. Easily ignores pipes and obstructions that are in the sonic beam path. User Friendly Set the measurement range directly in inches, feet, millimeters, centimeters, or meters via the integral display with environmentally sealed keypad. The display is menu driven and can easily be configured without detailed procedures: no cryptic codes, no problems. Level and Open Channel Flow measurements The USonic makes measurements on level, distance, volume or open channel flow easy to configure. Preset flume and weir characterizations are included in the USonic for over 80 different flumes and weirs. Custom characterizations can be user defined for flumes/weirs that are uncommon. Each USonic contains 2 totalizers (one is user resettable). Ideal for hazardous area installations Units designed for either Intrinsically Safe or Explosion Proof installations in Class 1 Div. 1, Zone 0 environments.
