Introduction
This product is intended for use in industrial areas. Operation of this
equipment in a residential area may cause interference to several
frequency based communications
The Echomax XRS-5 series of transducers operate with
Siemens Milltronics ultrasonic level monitoring products.
The transducer converts the electrical energy of the transmit
pulse from the transceiver into acoustical energy. It then
converts the acoustical energy of the echo back into electrical
energy for the controller.
The transducer face emits acoustical energy that radiates
outward, decreasing in amplitude at a rate inversely
proportional to the square of the distance. Maximum power
radiates perpendicularly from the transducer face on the axis of
transmission. Where power is reduced by half (– 3 dB), a conical
boundary centered around the axis of transmission defines the
sound beam, the diameter of which is the beam angle.
The XRS-5 series transducers have an integrated temperature
sensor that reports the air temperature at the transducer to the controller.
