Acoustic measurement principles of APG IRU and MNU ultrasonic level sensors
Ultrasonic non-contact level transmitters developed by APG / Automation Products Group across IRU and MNU product lines deliver dependable fluid tracking without immersing sensor components into process media.
By emitting high-frequency acoustic sound bursts and timing return reflections from liquid or bulk solid surfaces, the units compute fluid heights with millimeter-level precision.
Internal microprocessor compensation circuits adjust timing calculations against ambient temperature variations, preventing seasonal sensor drift.
Rugged housings formed from high-impact PC/PET and PVDF resins deliver IP65 and IP68 environmental sealing, while standard 4-20 mA loops and Modbus RTU ports connect directly to plant automation networks.
