Ultrasonic Level Sensor

About the RPS-4000

Migatron's RPS-4000 self-contained long-range Ultrasonic Sensor provides level control of both liquid and bulk materials. This gives the user a viable alternative to bubblers, floats, capacitance probes, and pressure transmitters. Migatron's RPS-4000 Sensor has a 4 – 20m analog output and a sensing range of 40 feet.

The incorporation of a microprocessor design makes it possible to achieve signal conditioning. This gives the sensor the ability to process the return ultrasonic echo and distinguish between false targets and real targets. With the incorporation of a microprocessor into the design of Migatron's RPS-4000 many of the common problems facing long-range sensing applications have been overcome. Software is written to optimize the performance characteristics of the sensor. The artificial intelligence analyzes and conditions the return ultrasonic echo. This process filters out any false echoes and electrical noise. An additional task that the microprocessor does is temperature compensation.
