LVU-150-R Series
Ultrasonic Level Sensors
• Not Sensitive to Changes In Viscosity, Density, or
Conductivity
• SPST Relay Standard
• Resists Vapor and Turbulence
• NEMA 6 (IP68) Submersible Sensor and Cable
Description
OMEGA’s ultrasonic sensors deliver accurate and reliable
liquid level detection with an SPST mechanical relay output.
The technology provides a high level of ultrasonic sensitivity,
including resistance to vapor and turbulence. The ultrasonic
sensor utilizes a fork-shaped sensor which contains two
piezoelectric crystals, one of which acts as the ultrasonic
transmitter, and the other as a receiver. If the air gap between
the points of the fork lls with liquid, the sonic wave passes
from one crystal to the other.
