The MassaSonic¬Æ FlatPack¬Æ Series Sensor is a low-profile ultrasonic transmitter designed for non-contact distance measurement of fluids, pastes, and uneven solid materials. It operates effectively within a range of 1 inch (25 mm) to 13 feet (4 m) and utilizes dual-transducer technology with a 15¬8 beam angle, which enhances its performance on uneven surfaces compared to single transducer sensors. The sensor features a PVC housing that is IP68 rated, making it suitable for use in various environmental conditions, including moderate chemical exposure, with an operational temperature range of -40¬8C to 70¬8C. This sensor includes advanced diagnostic capabilities, allowing users to analyze ultrasonic waveforms for troubleshooting. It operates on a power supply of 12 to 24 V DC and provides programmable linear outputs of either 0 to 10 V DC or 4-20 mA, which can be customized for specific applications. The sensor supports RS-485 communication, enabling connection of up to 32 sensors in a multi-drop network, facilitating remote programming and monitoring. With features such as continuous temperature compensation, protection against overvoltage, and short circuits, the FlatPack¬Æ Series Sensor is designed for reliable performance in demanding applications like liquid level control and bulk material management.
The MassaSonic® FlatPack® Sensors are low profile designed ultrasonic transmitter modules. They are optimized to provide continuous non-contact distance measurement of fluids, pastes, or uneven solid bulk materials in constrained working zones for application ranges from 1 inch (25 mm) to 13 feet (4 m).Incorporating state-of-the-art dual-transducer ultrasonic technology and processing algorithms, all FlatPack Series Sensors provide precision measurement for factory automation, warehouse materials control, pipe and conveyor belt blockage, or tank level applications with non-uniform surfaces.
FlatPack Sensors are also ideal for monitoring in-pipe flow levels of renewable energy systems. Because of the unique dual transducer design with 15° system beam angles, it is unlikely that the maximum range capabilities will be much affected by solid materials with uneven surfaces, as occurs with single transducer sensors with narrower beam angles.FlatPack Sensors are RoHS compliant and IP68 rated. They are field proven designs and come in a PVC housing suitable for use in all-weather resistant moderate chemical environments from -40°C to 70°C. An integrated mounting plate with pre-formed holes is provided for easy installation. All models are equipped with continuous temperature compensation to ensure precise speed of sound calibration and measurement accuracy. Other user friendly features include diagnostic and monitoring outputs, protection from over voltage, short circuits, and reverse polarity.
