The TS-100 model comes with permanently attached cables and tough piezoelectric transducers, making it ideal for monitoring and controlling water and other non-corrosive liquids, measuring distances, or detecting objects.

Versatile Measurement Capabilities: Accurately measure distances, detect objects, and monitor water and benign liquid levels.
Robust Construction: Built to withstand harsh conditions, making them ideal for both indoor and outdoor use.
Wide Operating Temperature Range: Function effectively in temperatures from -40 to +70°C.
High Ingress Protection: Rated IP68, NEMA-4X, and NEMA-6P for superior resistance against dust and water ingress.
User-Friendly Adjustments: Easily configure settings with the included 
SensorView software for setup, testing, and cloning sensors.

Advanced Features of TS-100 Ultrasonic Sensors

Extended Range, Minimal Dead Zone: Achieve precise distance measurements with a long-range capability and a short dead band.
Reliable in Any Environment: Unaffected by optical factors such as color, transparency, or lighting conditions.
Easy Setup & Calibration: Configure effortlessly via PC or onboard button for quick deployment.
Adjustable Sensitivity: Fine-tune detection for precise performance.
Built-in Temperature Compensation: Ensures accurate readings across fluctuating temperatures.

Benefits of this Easy-to-Use Ultrasonic Sensor

Fast & Simple Installation: Mount with ease for quick deployment in any application.
Rugged, Sealed Housing: Designed for wet, dirty, and harsh environments.
Reliable I/O Protection: Features short-circuit and overload protection for enhanced durability.
Multi-Sensor Synchronization: Operate multiple sensors without interference.
Non-Contact: Accurately measure levels and distances without touching the material being measured.
Rear Status Indicators: Easily monitor sensor operation and diagnostics, or reset default setup using a rear push-button (N/A on TS-100.50), or the push-button can be disabled.

Common Applications for TS-100 General-Purpose Sensors

Tank Level Measurement: Accurately monitor liquid levels in tanks containing benign fluids.
Open Channel Flow Monitoring: Ideal for flow measurement in flumes, weirs, and open channels.
Roll Diameter Measurement: Precisely gauge material roll diameters for manufacturing and processing.
Loop Control & Slack Detection: Maintain optimal material tension in production lines.
Object Detection & Presence Sensing: Verify object presence or absence in designated areas.
Relative Positioning: Measure an object’s position relative to a fixed reference point for automation and alignment.
