What Goes into the Making of a Transducer?

The main component of a depth transducer is the piezoceramic element. It is the part that converts electrical pulses into sound waves, and when the echoes return, the piezoceramic element converts the sound waves back into electrical energy. Piezoceramic elements are most often in a disk form,but they may also be in the shape of a bar or a ring. A transducer may contain one element or a series of elements linked together called an array. A transducer is made up of six separate components:

Ultrasonic level measurement

 

Ultrasonic level measurement with ultrasonic sensors provides continuous, non-contact and maintenance-free level measurement of fluids, pastes, sludges and powdery to coarse bulk materials. The measurement is unaffected by dielectric constant, density or humidity and also unaffected by build-up due to the self-cleaning effect of the sensors.

The ultrasonic method is a proved, as well as cost-effective solution for level measurement in liquids and bulk solids. Instruments are available as compact or separate versions. This measuring principle is characterized by easy planning and assembly, fast and safe commissioning, a long service life and reduced maintenance costs. Typical applications include abrasive and aggressive media, even in rough ambient conditions.

 

 A ultrasonic sensor emits ultrasonic pulses, the surface of the media reflects the signal and the sensor detects it again. The Time-of-Flight of the reflected ultrasonic signal is directly proportional to the distance traveled. With the known tank geometry the level can be calculated.
