Step One
An ultrasonic sound wave is pulsed from the base of the transducer. The sound wave reflects against the
process medium below it. The sound wave energy is returned to the transducer. The microprocessor based
electronics measures the time of flight between the sound pulse generation and its receipt. This translates into
the distance or range between the transducer and process media below.
NEW FEATURES
Reflective Ultrasonic Technology
Simple configuration with LVCN414-SW software configuration
Increased temperature range
Increased output filtering
