Discover Unmatched Reliability with ToughSonic Ultrasonic Water Level Sensors
When the going gets tough, you need a water level sensor that can handle it all. Say hello to ToughSonic, the epitome of rugged construction and smart communication in the world of ultrasonic level sensors.
Tough. Construction
Our ToughSonic sensors are not named ‘Tough’ for nothing. They’re built to withstand the harshest conditions, from the Australian outback to Alaskan oil fields. Encased in type 316 stainless steel, these sensors are epoxy potted with heavy-duty electronics, ensuring they can take on anything nature or industrial environments throw their way. Permanently attached cables and ruggedized piezoelectric transducers make them a stalwart addition to heavy construction, farming equipment, and harsh factory settings.
Key Features at a Glance:
- Measure distance, detect objects, control water, and benign liquid levels
- Ideal for indoor and outdoor applications
- Operating Temperature Range: -40°C to +70°C
- Impenetrable against dust and water with IP68, NEMA-4X, NEMA-6P ratings
- User-adjustable using SenixVIEW software (included)
Smart. Communications
ToughSonic sensors are not just tough; they’re also smart. Each sensor includes serial data communications, making them easy to connect with SenixVIEW setup software or your equipment. Choose between RS-232 or RS-485 models with selectable Modbus or ASCII streaming protocols. Enjoy the flexibility of baud rates from 9600 to 115200 bps, all user-configurable through SenixVIEW software.
Energy-Efficient Performance
Battery-powered applications benefit from quick power-on and readiness to measure in less than a second. If you only require a Serial Data interface, all models are available without additional analog and switch outputs. This not only reduces cost but also conserves power.
Multiple Outputs
Customize your ToughSonic to your specific needs with various output options:
- Analog 0-10 VDC and 4-20 mA
- User-configurable switches (Sinking or Sourcing)
- Push-button adjustments for all models except ToughSonic 50
- ToughSonic 3, 12, 14: Two concurrent outputs + serial data
- ToughSonic 30, 50: Five concurrent outputs + serial data
Ultimate Flexibility
All sensor outputs are SenixVIEW configurable, giving you complete control over your measurements. Adjust analogs and switches with ease to fit your unique requirements. With options for calibration, limits, slope, and time delays, you can fine-tune your sensor exactly the way you want.
Easy. Teach Button
The rear push-button on ToughSonic sensors simplifies setup, although many features can be adjusted through SenixVIEW software. Rest assured, the default setup can be reset, or the button can be disabled, ensuring that the sensor suits your exact needs.
Connected. SenixVIEW PC Software
We provide SenixVIEW software at no additional cost. Running on a Windows PC and connecting via a serial data port, SenixVIEW enhances your sensor’s capabilities. With over 60 user-adjustable parameters, data logging, graphing, and statistics features, it gives you powerful configuration, testing, and management capabilities.
Sensor Adjustments Give You More Control
- Fine-tune analogs, switches, and all outputs
- Manage serial data communications effectively
- Optimize measurements with temperature compensation, sensitivity, data filters, and more
With ToughSonic, you’re not just getting a water level sensor; you’re getting unmatched reliability, ruggedness, and intelligence, all at your fingertips. Upgrade to ToughSonic today, where ‘tough’ meets ‘smart.’
