The LVU40 Series consists of
advanced ultrasonic level
measurement sensors for liquids.
These products continue to prove
useful in demanding applications.
The microprocessor-based circuits
provide a temperature-compensated
signal for improved accuracy. All
models have the ability to filter false
echoes produced by peripheral
obstructions.
These transmitters can perform
continuous level measurement in a
range of 0.3 to 18.3 m (1.0 to 60'),
with several power and
programmability options. Point level
can also be obtained by using a
PLC (programmable logic
controller) or one of OMEGA’s CNi
Series process controllers.
