Sonataxsc Sludge Level Probe

The superior way of measuring sludge levels: Sonatax sc process probe

Reduced Maintenance with Innovative Wiper Design The wiper functions with a magnetic connection and without a shaft so there are no o-rings to replace and no need to open the probe housing. Tools are not needed to replace the wiper blades. Superior Accuracy with Automatic Frequency Adjustment The Sonatax sc probe automatically scans a range of frequencies to fi nd the ideal settings for the solids concentration for the application. Built-in software disregards signals re fl ected from tank structures such as pipes, rods, etc. Unique Features The fully digitized Sonatax sc probe means there are no electromagnetic interferences. Instantly resume measurements after skimmer passes with the built-in position sensor that also compensates for angle when the probe is not mounted exactly vertically. Temperature Compensation for Seasonal Changes Automatic temperature compensation assures ultrasonic measurement is una ff ected by seasonal changes in water temperature - seasonal calibration becomes unnecessary. Visual Performance Indicator Enhances Troubleshooting A visual performance LED indicator light on the Sonatax sc probe provides quick glance assurance of proper performance. Green light indicates “okay”, red indicates warning. Troubleshooting, particularly in applications with multiple sludge blanket level probes connected to one controller, is quick and easy.
