The Pulsar new level range is deceptively simple
"Blackbox" is a newly launched component ultrasonic level measurement range from Pulsar Process Measurement, allowing users to select the output they need for their specific application
The dB40 has a compact, canister-style design that makes it easy to install and, like the rest of the family of dB transducers, can be sited up to 500metres away from its control unit.
The connection is made with a simple shielded pair cable and the dB40 can be paired with any of Pulsars Ultra or Blackbox control units.
Dead band is only 1m from the transducer face.
Ultrasonic level measurement works by generating a sound wave and analysing the echo that returns from the material you are measuring.
The dB40s very long range is achieved by a clever array of crystals in the transducer head providing high power with a narrow beam angle, coupled with the Pulsar patented Datem echo processing software, which locks onto the echo corresponding to the correct level and follows it unerringly as it travels with the rise and fall of material.
The dB40 completes the dB family of transducers, providing reliable and accurate level measurement over a range from 125mm right through to 40m. Request a free brochure from Pulsar Process Measurement ...
