5 Critical Benefits of Ultrasonic Level Detectors for Industrial Operations

Introduction to Ultrasonic Level Detection

Ultrasonic level measurement has revolutionized industrial process monitoring with its non-contact operation and reliable performance. Jiwei’s Uson series ultrasonic level detectors utilize high-frequency sound waves to accurately determine liquid and solid levels in storage tanks, silos, and process vessels. The working principle is elegantly simple yet highly effective: the sensor emits ultrasonic pulses that travel toward the material surface, reflect back, and are detected by the same transducer. By precisely measuring the time-of-flight of these sound waves with microsecond resolution, the device calculates the exact distance to the material surface with remarkable accuracy.

Jiwei’s Uson series ultrasonic level detectors are engineered for demanding industrial environments, offering exceptional performance in:

  • Water and wastewater treatment plants
  • Chemical processing facilities
  • Food and beverage production
  • Pharmaceutical manufacturing
  • Bulk solids storage applications

Precision Measurement with Temperature Compensation

Jiwei’s Uson series ultrasonic level detectors provide three configurable measurement ranges (5m, 10m, and 15m) to accommodate various industrial requirements. The integrated temperature compensation ensures stable accuracy (±0.5% FS) across a wide operating temperature range (-40°C to +80°C).

Key Features:
✓ Automatic compensation for environmental temperature variations
✓ Maintains measurement consistency in changing conditions
✓ Multiple range options for flexible application
