Product catalog summary
Overview
The document provides technical specifications and features of the ToughSonic 12 Level Sensor by Senix Corporation. It highlights the sensor's capabilities in non-contact ultrasonic liquid level measurement, emphasizing its durability and flexibility in various industrial applications.
Specifications
The sensor offers a maximum range of 12 feet (3.7 meters) and is housed in an IP68 rated SS316 stainless steel casing, making it chemically resistant. It operates within a temperature range of -40 to 158°F (-40 to 70°C) and supports humidity levels from 0 to 100%. The sensor is temperature compensated and provides a resolution of 0.0034 inches (0.086 mm) for serial data.
Outputs and Interfaces
The ToughSonic 12 Level Sensor includes RS-232 or RS-485 serial data interfaces, with two configurable outputs that can be set for voltage (0-10 VDC) or current loop (4-20 mA). Switch outputs can be configured as either "PNP" or "NPN" types. The sensor supports Modbus protocol for data communication.
Features
The sensor is equipped with SenixVIEW software for easy configuration and optimization. It allows for quick adjustments, saving, and cloning of applications without the need for calibration. The sensor's non-contact technology ensures that no materials are touched during measurement.
Applications
The sensor is suitable for various industrial applications, including pump or material flow controllers, due to its adjustable interface features like switch hysteresis and time delays. It eliminates the need for additional components like PLCs and delay circuits.
Installation and Accessories
The sensor comes with a 30mm threaded housing for easy mounting and includes two stainless steel mounting nuts. Additional accessories for interconnection, communications, mounting, and display are available from Senix.
Limitations
The sensor is not recommended for use with hazardous or explosive materials or as a primary device for personal safety. It is also advised to restrict use to the optimum range under varying environmental conditions.

ToughSonic® 12 Level SensorChemically Resistant, Two Outputs + Data Communications TSPC Non-Contact Ultrasonic Liquid Level Measurement Chemically resistant PVDF transducer sensors with SenixVIEW software put the power of ultrasonics in your hands yet retain the simplicity of push-button TEACH setup. You can quickly adjust, optimize, save and clone your applications without calibration! ToughSonic sensors contain a rugged transducer potted in a stainless steel housing for long life. Outputs respond to measured distance and non-contact technology means nothing touches your materials. Many applications exist in all industries. Contact Senix today to discuss your specific needs. Up to 12-ft. (3.7 m) maximum range in IP68 rated SS316 housing30mm threaded housing Output Selection Tough. Smart. Connected. Distance Measurements • Long range, short dead band • Unaffected by optical factors like color and transparency • PC or button "teachable” setup • Narrow beam with adjustments to optimize performance • Temperature compensated Packaging & Performance • Quick mounting • Durable sealed housing for wet or dirty applications • Short & overload protected I/O • Multi-sensor synchronization • Adjustable sensitivity • Rear status indicators (3) Free Functionality using adjustable interface features like switch hysteresis and time delays to build complete solutions such as pump or material flow controllers. Save cost by eliminating PLCs, delay circuits and time delay relays! Use SenixVIEW software (see separate data sheet) to select and adjust all interfaces, timing parameters, filters and modes. Then view, analyze or log data to optimize your application. Flexible configuration means fewer parts to stock and quick duplication! Higher volume OEM options are available. Push-button "teach"features provide for several common adjustments when a PC is not available. In addition to the model's RS-232 or RS-485 serial data interface there are two SenixVIEW selected outputs to suit your application. All outputs have configurable endpoints, setpoints, event responses and time delays. Voltage & Current Loop are both provided simultaneously in standard (0-10 VDC, 4-20 mA) or custom ranges. They are fully configurable and can either rise or fall with increasing distance. Switches can be selected in lieu of one or both analogs, and set to either "PNP" or "NPN" type (sourcing or sinking). Each has independently adjustable set point, hysteresis, window, initial conditions, ON delay, OFF delay and loss of target response for ultimate flexibility.
