Senix – a division of BinMaster Sensors and Technologies LLC applications
Senix ToughSonic® ultrasonic sensors are a reliable and cost-effective solution for indoor and outdoor water monitoring. From harsh, salty ocean environments to freshwater applications, ToughSonics deliver smart and reliable calculations. Electronics are potted in 316 stainless steel housings for general purpose sensors. For added durability, ToughSonic chemical sensors are epoxy potted into Kynar®—polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF)—housings. All sensors are IP68 rated.
ToughSonic® ultrasonic sensors offer cost-effective, continuous level monitoring and measurements for small, mid-size and large tanks. They are installed at the top of the tank to provide non-contact liquid and/or chemical measurements. Senix ultrasonics are easy to install into standard fittings, adaptable to a wide variety of liquids and liquid environments, and can be used both indoors and out. ToughSonics are compatible with local network integration for convenient on-site monitoring or BinCloud® software for remote and multi-site monitoring.
Need non-contact, unintrusive, long-distance proximity detection in a factory or processing setting? Senix ToughSonic® ultrasonic proximity sensors reliably detect objects or materials through the air and are easy to install and program. Most materials can be detected: hard or soft, any color or transparency, and flat or curved. ToughSonics are unaffected by optical characteristics and remain accurate through ambient light, shine, and reflectivity. Unlike traditional proximity sensors, ultrasonics operate over longer distances and can be set up to limit object detection within a user-specified distance band—or “window.”
ToughSonic® ultrasonic sensors excel at distance ranging without touching or damaging the target. They are widely used for collision avoidance in vehicles, and for obstacle avoidance in robotics and autonomous systems. Senix sensors are easy to use, install, and configure. Their reliability sets them apart as a top choice for hundreds of industrial applications throughout the world. Measurements are conveniently converted and sent to the user’s IoT solution of choice—a LAN, Public LoRa services, or BinCloud®, a Cloud-based inventory management software. In industrial processing settings, ToughSonics are used for liquid level measurement in tanks and bins, and for object detection for security and inventory purposes.
ToughSonic® non-contact ultrasonic sensors are utilized in a variety of industries for liquid level measurements. They enhance inventory management by measuring distances to items on conveyor belts, to production equipment, and material levels within containers. While sensors work without direct contact, they endure exposure to the elements without impacting accuracy or reliability. These measurements are used in inventory systems to maintain product integrity, track stock levels, automate processes, and trigger alerts. Ensure precise bulk material inventory, prevent overstocking or stockouts at plants or worksites, and provide insights into planning and forecasting—all with a ToughSonic sensor. Senix sensors are built TOUGH, designed to last, and made in the USA.
ToughSonic® ultrasonics are utilized in hundreds of factories throughout the world. Senix sensors are vital in material handling, process control, and object positioning systems by providing non-contact detection and distance measurement. They detect object presence, position, and level for various applications such as conveyor systems, robotic arms, and forklifts. Non-contact sensors measure without handling the material or object. Measurements are typically captured from above, but the sensors can be installed horizontally in open air for positioning applications. ToughSonic® sensors can be configured to react in as quickly as 5 milliseconds in the case of an incident or critical error.
ToughSonic® ultrasonic sensors provide non-contact, reliable, continuous liquid level measurements, obstacle detection, and vehicle positioning assistance in road construction worksites. Their durable build provides superior resistance against dust, water, and harsh construction conditions. With over 80 user-configurable parameters through SensorView™ software—FREE with the purchase of every sensor—the settings of each Senix sensor can be tailored, cloned, or SYNCed to meet the precise needs of every civil engineering project.
Senix ToughSonic® ultrasonic sensors measure distances to target objects or materials using “non-contact” technology that does not physically touch the target. They’re reliable, user-friendly and used in all industries throughout the world. Their real-time, non-contact distance measurements are crucial for maintaining optimal ride height and stability in hydrofoils. ToughSonics are also used for water depth sensing and detecting corrosion in ship maintenance. Looking for liquid level measurement applications instead?
