LEVEL SENSING
Level Sensing
Proven, reliable technology, Airmar’s ultrasonic transducers are used in a wide variety of level sensing applications including: water & wastewater, food & beverage and oil & gas. Unlike mechanical level indicators, ultrasonic sensors are non-contact, so the risk of sensor fouling or mechanical breakdown over time is eliminated. Our Kynar® 720 models are unmatched in chemically aggressive environments.
Not sure which transducer is suitable for your application? Here are a few common questions:
- What is the sensing range of a transducer?
-
- From 5cm to 40m, we have a solution.
- What materials can be measured?
-
- Most liquids are easy to measure but some materials, like foam can absorb sound waves, reducing the sensing range.
- What are the environmental conditions the sensor will operate in?
-
- Our sensors are designed for environmentally challenging work areas however, areas with radical convection or extreme temperature changes, (i.e. near a furnace or air nozzles) are not recommended.

Air Ranging Transducers
Our air-ranging transducers provide non-contact solutions for customers' toughest sensing problems. Unlike other sensing techniques, ultrasonic sensors can detect clear, transparent or shiny objects and are not affected by color.
Flow Measurement
Ultrasonic flow meters use sound waves to determine the velocity of a fluid flowing in a pipe, river or open channel.
