Product catalog summary
Introduction
Shenzhen Jiwei Automations Ltd. discusses the application of Ultrasonic Level Transmitters, which are designed for continuous non-contact liquid level measurement. These devices use high-frequency ultrasonic pulses to measure the distance to the liquid surface by calculating the time difference between pulse transmission and reception.

Specifications and Conditions
The Ultrasonic Level Transmitter is suitable for open pools and specific containers, provided that the pressure and temperature are near normal atmospheric conditions. The speed of sound waves can vary with changes in temperature and pressure, affecting measurement accuracy.
  • Pressure should be close to atmospheric, with air-like components above the liquid level for accurate sound wave transmission.
  • Temperature should be low to prevent water vapor from affecting the transducer.
  • An anti-corrosion transducer is recommended for corrosive media.

Installation Recommendations
Several installation considerations are highlighted:
  • Install the instrument vertically with the transducer surface parallel to the liquid surface.
  • Ensure the distance from the highest liquid level to the transducer is greater than the transducer's blind area.
  • For light steam containers, incline the probe slightly to avoid droplet interference.
  • In cases of stirring or fluctuation, use an extended guide tube with a smooth inner wall.
  • Avoid installation near liquid inlets/outlets and in areas of strong vibration. Use rubber gaskets for light vibration areas and protective shelters for outdoor installations.

Applications
The document mentions specific applications such as fire water tanks and niobium oxide production, demonstrating the versatility of the Ultrasonic Level Transmitter in various industrial settings.

Application of Ultrasonic Level Transmitter in Hermetic Container-1

Application of Ultrasonic Level Transmitter in Hermetic Container Ultrasonic Level Transmitter is specifically designed for continuous non-contact liquid level measurement. The transducer (probe) sends out high frequency ultrasonic pulses. When a pulse hits the surface of measured liquid, it is partially reflected. The reflected wave is received by the transducer and converted into an electronic signal. The distance from the transducer to liquid surface is calculated according to the time difference between pulse transmission and reception and velocity of sound wave. Because Ultrasonic Level Transmitter sensor is contactless, it can provide reliable continuous level measurements for applications in various open pools, for example, water pool in sewage treatment and other water resources in hydraulic and hydrological survey. In fact, Ultrasonic Level Transmitter can also be used in a specific container, but the pressure and temperature are required to be close to normal atmosphere. The propagation speed of Ultrasonic Level Transmitter differs when temperature and pressure change. In general, to use Ultrasonic Level Transmitters in hermetic container need to meet the following conditions: 1. Pressure in the hermetic container should be close to atmospheric pressure. In particular, the medium above the liquid level should be similar to air components to ensure accurate and smooth transmission of the sound waves. Shenzhen Jiwei Automations Ltd.

These droplets affect the emission of sound waves, as well as the measurement accuracy. 3. Anti-corrosion transducer should be selected for corrosive medium.

Application of Ultrasonic Level Transmitter in Hermetic Container-3

1. Keep the instrument installed vertically. Ensure that the transmitting surface of the transducer is parallel to the measured plane, so the sound wave could vertically transmit to the surface and return with maximum energy. 2. Ensure that the distance from the highest liquid level to the transducer surface is greater than the blind area of the transducer. 3. For light steam container, the probe should be inclined slightly by about 3 ° during installation to avoid droplets. 4. In case of stir or fluctuation, an extended guide tube with smooth inner wall is suggested to install into the bottom...
