Ultrasonic Detectors

Ultrasonic sensors present the ideal solution for non-contact position and distance measurement, in all industrial areas where environmental conditions such as dust, smoke or steam may effect the sensors. Objects consisting of a variety of materials can be detected, regardless of colour or shape, to within millimetres. The sensor uses very high frequencies that are outside of the human audible range as a data carrier. The time it takes the ultrasonic wave to pass between the sensor and the object gives a measurement for the distance or the position. Ultrasonic sensors have proven their reliability and precision especially in the wood and furniture industry, the construction materials industry, for farming equipment, construction equipment and in level control applications.
