Tank Level Sensor Ultrasonic Long Range Wireless
Introducing NCD’s Long Range Industrial IoT Wireless Ultrasonic Tank Level Sensor, boasting up to a 2 Mile range using a wireless mesh networking architecture. Incorporating a corrosion resistant Ultrasonic proximity detection sensor, this wireless IoT Ultrasonic Tank Level Sensor transmits highly accurate tank levels as distance values at user-defined intervals. The Ultrasonic tank level sensor features 1mm resolution with a distance measurement range of 40 to 9999mm. Please note the recommended useful range is 500 to 9999mm for best reliability. The Ultrasonic tank level sensor is IP67 rated and comes with a 75 inch (1.9 Meter) probe while the transmitter has a IP65 rating.
With an open communication protocol, this IoT wireless Ultrasonic Tank Level Sensor can be integrated with just about any control system or gateway. Data can be transmitted to a PC, a Raspberry Pi, to Microsoft Azure® IoT, Amazon AWS, Losant, and MQTT servers or to local Arduino processors for special handling. Sensor parameters and wireless transmission settings can be changed using an open communication protocol allowing this Tank Level sensor to adapt to most tank level measurement applications.
Applications requiring 100% reading-to-reading reliability should not use Ultrasonic Tank Level Sensors at a distance closer than 500mm. Although many users have found a Ultrasonic Tank Level Sensor to work reliably from 0 to 50cm for detecting objects, it is not guaranteed to have operational reliability for objects closer than the minimum reported distance. Because of ultrasonic physics, these sensors are unable to achieve 100% reliability at close distances.
Note — If the Target is closer than 300mm the sensor will output 500mm and if the Target is out of range the sensor will output 9999mm.
The long range, price, accuracy, battery life and security features of this Long Range Wireless Ultrasonic Tank Level Sensor for Level/Proximity Monitoring makes it an affordable choice which exceeds the requirements for most industrial as well as consumer market applications.
Transmission Interval
This Ultrasonic Tank Level Sensor sends data periodically, based on user-preset timing intervals.
This Ultrasonic Tank Level Sensor sends data when a user-defined percentage of change in distance/level is detected.
