    Safety instructions Safe ty ins tructions De s ig nate d us e The Sonicont is a compact measuring device for continuous, non-contact level measurement. Depending on the sensor, the measuring range is up to 15m in fluids and up to 7m in bulk solids. By using the linearisation function, the Sonicont can also be used for flow measurements in open channels and measuring weirs.
