Senix Corporation, a privately held company located in Hinesburg, Vermont, and manufacturer of ToughSonic® ultrasonic level and distance sensors, recently introduced the stainless steel ToughSonic 3 sensor. This new ultrasonic sensor is designed for special applications that require measurements very close to the sensor face or where a narrow ultrasonic beam is required.
Designed for rugged industrial applications, the ToughSonic 3 is packaged in the same 30 mm threaded 316 stainless steel housing as Senix’s ToughSonic 14. It is fully potted with a 6-ft pigtail cable, IP68 ingress protected, and interface reverse polarity protected. Interfaces are software selected and configured, and include any two of voltage, current loop, or switches, plus Modbus serial data – all in one small package. All ToughSonic products can be networked and/or configured in multi-sensor groups to avoid cross-talk or connect with data systems such as RTUs, PLCs and computers.
