The GF Signet 2260 Ultrasonic Level Transmitters is a rugged, high performance ultrasonic level measurement transmitter, having transducer and processing electronics and a display/programming unit incorporated in one single housing. All type 2260 Level Transmitters are using established high end pulse echo transducers, which provide narrow beam angles and reliable measurement ranges up to a distance of 15 meters.
For small, stand alone tanks the transmitter provides a simple 2-wire 4 to 20 mA output, with additional power relay contacts. It can be programmed using push buttons and the large, graphic display. For large and/or multiple tank applications versions with HART interface are recommended, communicating directly with a panel mount controller or PLC. The HART protocol can easily be used for programming these versions.
Applications for the 2260 include:
This product can be used in the following applications:
The Background: Our customer is a wastewater treatment plant that is looking for a compact flow meter to send open channel flow measurements to a data acquisition system.
The Problem: The measurements are to be taken as water flows through a V-notch weir. The customer does not require any local display, just the ability to transmit information to a data acquisition syste,m.
The Solution: We recommended the GF Signet 2260 ultrasonic level transmitter, a compact unit that excels at open channel flow measurements. Using the optional GF Signet 159300180 display unit, the customer can program for v-notch weir and using the 4-20mA output, send the flow rate information to their data acquisition system.
