US
The IRU-5000 series provides a non-contact method of detecting level, presence/absence detection, and volume,
proximity, or distance calculation. With built-in technology to compensate for unpredictiable variables such as humidity, temperature, and agitators the IRU-5000 is designed to excel in short range applications.
Features
• AutoSense Software for hassle-free setup
• Internal Temperature Compensation
• Works on solids and liquids
• Class I Div 2 Non-incendive for 4-20 mA output
