EchoMax XPS
■ Overview
■ Benefits
•
•
•
•
•
•
Integral temperature compensation
Low ringing effect reduces blanking distance
Optional foam facing for dusty applications
Self-cleaning and low-maintenance
Chemically resistant
Hermetically sealed
■ Application
XPS transducers can be fully immersed, are resistant to steam
and corrosive chemicals, and can be installed without flanges.
The XPS series offers versions for various measuring ranges up
to 30 m (100 ft) and up to a max. temperature of 95 °C (203 °F).
EchoMax XPS transducers use ultrasonic technology to
measure level in a wide range of liquids and solids.
During operation, the EchoMax transducers emit acoustic
pulses in a narrow beam. The level monitor measures the propagation time between pulse emission and its reflection (echo) to
calculate the distance.

Mounting
Make particularly sure that the radiating face of the transducer is
protected from damage. Mount the transducer so that it is above the
maximum material level by at least the blanking value. On liquid
applications, the transducer must be mounted so that the axis of
transmission is perpendicular to the liquid surface. On solids applications,
an Easy Aimer should be used to facilitate aiming the
transducer. Consider the optional temperature sensor when mounting
the transducer.
Interconnection
Do not route cable openly or near high voltage or current runs, contactors
and SCR control drives. For optimum isolation against electrical noise,
run cable separately in a grounded metal conduit. Seal all thread
connections to prevent ingress of moisture.
