TIENet® Model 310 Ex
Ultrasonic Level Sensor
Section 1 Introduction
The Signature® Flow Meter uses the TIENet 310 Ex Device to
provide non-contact liquid level measurement. The flow meter
has built-in level-to-flow conversions that cover the majority of
open channel flow measurement situations.
1.1 Description
The ultrasonic sensor is mounted over the flow stream. The flow
meter measures the time interval between transmission of a
sound pulse from the sensor, and receiving its echo off the surface
of the liquid, to determine the level of the stream.
