Ultrasonic sensors play a crucial role in water treatment and wastewater management by accurately and noninvasively monitoring water levels, ensuring efficient processes and preventing potential issues like overflows or underfilling. New BinMaster ToughSonic TS-100 and TS-200 noncontact ultrasonic sensors include general-purpose and chemical-resistant models suitable for measuring distances up to 50 feet. These sensors can be used for tank level measurement, remote monitoring, distance ranging and object detection in water and wastewater treatment applications. 

The TS-100 series of ultrasonic sensors offer durable stainless-steel construction with heavy-duty electronics epoxy potted into type 316 stainless steel housings. TS-100 series sensors feature permanently attached cables and ruggedized piezoelectric transducers. They are offered in 14-, 30- and 50-foot ranges.

The TS-200 series ultrasonic sensors are made of chemical-resistant polyvinylidene fluoride plastic to resist deterioration from chemical exposure. Their heavy-duty electronics are epoxy-potted into a chemical-resistant plastic housing that physically isolates the transducer and electronics from the target material. They are ideal for vessels up to 14, 30 or 35 feet tall.

ToughSonic sensors can detect the presence of objects or for distance ranging for conveyor load profiling. These durable ultrasonic sensors can also play a vital environmental role in water monitoring for flood, tsunami and sea level monitoring. They have been widely used by municipal utilities worldwide for water and sewer monitoring. They are suited to the rigorous outdoor demands of irrigation or pond, river, stream, lake and sea level monitoring. In extreme sulfide sewer gas climatic conditions, they provide valuable weather-related data for open channel flow, flood monitoring, tide, wave and tsunami warnings.

When integrated with BinCloud inventory software, users can identify full, empty or reorder levels. Batch, pump and valve control can be achieved when these sensors are networked to industrial equipment. BinMaster customers will benefit from having their liquid and solids inventory visible with one login to BinCloud inventory management software. These compact sensors integrate seamlessly into all BinMaster real-time inventory and level monitoring systems.

“BinMaster customers will benefit from having all of their liquid and solids inventory visible with one login to BinCloud software,” says Scott Hudson, executive vice president of BinMaster. “These compact sensors will integrate seamlessly into our real-time inventory and level monitoring systems.”
