All operations described in this instruction manual have to be carried out only by trained
personnel or an accredited person. Warranty and post warranty service must be exclusively
carried out by the manufacturer.
Improper use, installation or set-up of the level meter can result in crashes in the application
(overfilling of the tank or damage of system components).
The manufacturer is not responsible for improper use, losses of work caused by either direct or
indirect damage, and for expenses incurred during installation or use of the level meter.
1 . M
easuring principle
Ultrasonic level meter Ultrapro UPS
two parts - main level meter (the body with measuring electronics) and the display module. Using
the electroacoustic converter, the level meter transmits a sequence of ultrasonic pulses that
spread towards the surface level. The converter recuperates reflected acoustic waves that are
subsequently processed in the electronic module. The Utraflo filters out interfering signals,
compares the cleaned received signal with the false reflection map (e.g. from mixers, ladders,
reinforcement etc.) and selects a suitable reflection (echo). Based on the period during which the
individual pulses spread towards the surface level and back and based on the measured
temperature in the tank, the instant distance to the surface level is calculated. According to the
level height, the level meter output is set and the measured value is shown on the display.
2 . r
ange of applicaTions
For continuous non-contact level measurement of liquids (water solutions, sewerage water, etc.),
mash and paste materials (sediments, sticks, resins etc.) in closed or open vessels, sumps, reser-
voirs and open channels. In case the level of bulk-solid materials is measured, the measurement
range is reduced. The level meters can continuously measure levels of bulk-solid materials with
a low concentration of dust particles. Consult the manufacturer on recommended use of the level
meter for bulk-solid materials.
