Flowline EchoPod UG Ultrasonic Level Transmitters
Accurate and Reliable Liquid Level Measurement for Small Tanks and Challenging Environments
The Flowline EchoPod UG01 and UG03 Ultrasonic Level Transmitters provide continuous, non-contact liquid level measurement up to 9.8 feet (3 meters). These versatile devices feature a 4-20 mA analog signal output and four configurable relays, making them ideal for a wide range of applications, including day tanks, cooling towers, and process sumps.
The UG01 and UG03 are particularly suited for small tanks and challenging environments with non-foaming or highly vaporous media, thanks to their proprietary Reflective Technology™, which ensures reliable operation even in condensing conditions.
These transmitters are easy to configure with WebCal software, enabling users to set up fail-safes, alarms, and pump control functionality. Built with rugged PVDF construction, they are engineered for durability and reliability in various industrial applications, including chemical, water, wastewater, and oil processing.
