Tank level sensor for ships (acoustic wave)
UTS™
API Marine
The API UTS™ Liquid Level Switch works on the principle of distributed acoustic wave in a metal rod.
The API UTS™ is installed outside the tank with only the metal rod inside the tank. Acoustic waves in the metal rod created by piezo-electric ensure transmission of signals. When the liquid in the tank reaches the probe on the rod, the emission of sound waves is muffled. This change is picked up by the piezo-electric and signals are transmitted to the corresponding alarms.
Patented in EU, USA and Japan.
The API UTS™ Liquid Level Switch is a series of sensors that can make up part of various control systems and is designed in more than 300 modifications.
