Ultrasonic Levelmeter SOUNDMAX UW5000 Series

SOUNDMAX UW5000 Series is an ultrasonic non-contact levelmeter for continuous measuring. The wide variety of sensors suitable for various applications and wide measuring ranges make it possible to measure the level for various fluids and substances in many industries.
The combination of high efficient sensors and state-of-the-art signal treatment technology ensures the measurement in difficult conditions which would be disturbances for stable measurement. UW5000 offers either a sensor-and-converter integral type or remote type for your convenience.
Very small flow rate can be covered:  Min. 0 - 0.5 L/h [Water] can be measured.  
 Alarm output option available:    In addition to local indication type, alarm output version is also available.
 Compact design:   Easy installation onto instrument panel.
 Safety for high temperature and pressure: All metallic material construction covers tough applications!
