Page 3: About The Transducer
ABOUT THE TRANSDUCER transducer The ST-50 series of transducers operates in association with Milltronics ultrasonic level monitoring products. transducer The transducer converts the electrical energy of the face – 3 db transmit pulse from the transceiver into acoustical energy. boundary It then converts the acoustical energy of the echo back into electrical energy for the transceiver receive period. -

Page 5: Mounting - Liquid Applications
On liquid applications , the transducer must be mounted so that the axis of transmission is perpendicular to the liquid surface. Avoid aiming into vortexes. On solids applications , the Milltronics Easy Aimer should be used to facilitate aiming of the transducer. Refer to the Easy Aimer instruction manual. -
Page 6: Mounting - Solids Applications
In solids applications, the transducer should be mounted so that it is aimed toward the low level draw point. To facilitate this mounting, it is suggested that the optional Milltronics Easy Aimer Kit be used. Refer to the Easy Aimer instruction manual. - Page 7 APPLICATIONS LIQUID APPLICATIONS - STANDPIPES In many applications, access must be made via a standpipe. In such cases, Milltronics can provide flange mounted transducers that will readily mate to the flanged standpipe. Another option is to hang the transducer from a blind flange.
