Level Sensors and Pressure Gauges

Back up pump control is a critical part of any pump control application, ensuring that failure does not result in a potentially hazardous overflow or the unwanted emptying of a tank. Ideally, back up sensors work independently from the control system, so that failure of the primary controls will not disable them.

Rapidly changing liquid levels can overwhelm a single pump, and cause excessive wear and tear. To prevent this, additional pumps can be added to control the liquid level.

Poly tanks are used throughout the world for bulk liquid storage and processing. They are durable, lightweight, and compatible with many chemicals. Naturally, not all of these tanks will be installed where a control system is present. When level control is needed in these circumstances, a stand-alone solution is the only option.

With ultrasonic sensors, the most reliable distance readings are obtained when unwanted echoes are reduced or eliminated. This is done when the sensor is set to the minimum power and sensitivities needed to accurately read a target.
