The RPS-4000 self-contained long range
Ultrasonic Sensor provides level control of both
liquid and bulk materials. This gives the user a
viable alternative to bubblers, floats, capacitance
probes, and pressure transmitters.

The sensor has three methods of calibration.
The momentary contact closure method, the
hard wire choice table of factory set ranges, and
calibrating with remote potentiometers. These
calibration methods make the sensor extremely
versatile. The sensor also have field adjustable
sensitivity (Gain Control). This allows the operator
to tune the sensor for optimum performance to
meet different tank or material conditions. If set
points are required in addition to the sensor's
analog output, look up the Migatron SPC-701,
SPC-704 and M-1000* control products. The
SPC-704 can also be used as a power supply for
the RPS-4000.

With a 40 foot sensing range many tanks are
within reach of the RPS-4000. The incorporation
of a microprocessor design makes it possible to
achieve signal conditioning. This gives the sensor
the ability to process the return ultrasonic echo
and distinguish between false targets and real
targets.
With the incorporation of a microprocessor
into the design of the RPS-4000 many of the
common problems facing long range sensing
applications have been overcome. Software is
written to optimize the performance characteristics
of the sensor. The artificial intelligence analyzes
and conditions the return ultrasonic echo. This
process filters out any false echoes and electrical
noise. An additional task that the microprocessor
does is temperature compensation.

* M-1000 can not be used as a power supply
for the RPS-4000.
