Description
This general purpose, ultrasonic sensor provides non-contact level detection up to 98.4" (2.5m) with 4 SPST 60 VA 1A relays and a two-wire 4-20 mA level measurement output. Each relay can be configured on a single set point alarm or latched on two sets for automatic fill or empty in simplex or duplex control modes with fail-safe logic. The embedded controller can replace external control hardware. The sensor is well suited for a wide range of corrosive, sticky or dirty type media. EchoPod Plus is broadly selected for day tanks, sumps, IBC totes, lift stations and mini-bulk storage applications. To configure EchoPod Plus, download the free WebCal software and purchase one USB interface tool.
