Product catalog summary

Overview: ECHOTEL ultrasonic level switches offer superior performance and reliability compared to traditional tuning fork technology. They provide accurate level control and overfill prevention without the need for density calibration.

Key Features:

Performance: Capable of reading all liquid densities, including those below 0.6 SG, without requiring density adjustments.
Efficiency and Versatility: The Model 962 offers dual-point capability, allowing two-point measurement from a single unit, unlike tuning forks that require two separate units.
Remote Mounting: ECHOTEL switches can be remotely mounted up to 150 feet away, providing ease of access and control.

Advanced Technology:

Ultrasonic Gap Technology: Utilizes pulsed signal technology to detect liquid presence, converting ultrasonic signals to electrical signals.
Diagnostics: Offers advanced diagnostics with two separate relay outputs for level alarms and compliance with safety guidelines.

Technical Specifications:

Electronics: Models 961/962 with relay output and current shift output options, supporting various supply voltages and relay ratings.
Transducer Materials: Available in 316 Stainless steel, Hastelloy C-276, Monel, Kynar (PVDF), and CPVC.
Performance: Features include repeatability of ±0.078” (2 mm), response time of ½ second, and adjustable time delay.
Environmental: Operates in ambient temperatures from -40° to +160° F (-40° to +70° C) and meets CE requirements for electromagnetic compatibility.

Conclusion: ECHOTEL ultrasonic level switches provide enhanced performance, reliability, and ease of use, making them a superior choice for level control applications.
