XY-F/FP Split-type Ultrasonic Level Meter: A High-Reliability Non-contact Material Level and Liquid Level Measurement and Control Solution for Harsh Working Conditions
In process industries such as wastewater treatment, petrochemical, power, mining, and food processing, continuous monitoring of material level and liquid level faces challenges such as high temperature, high corrosion, strong adhesion, high dust, or limited space. Integrated ultrasonic level meters are prone to circuit interference or damage in harsh environments, leading to increased maintenance costs.
The Nexisense XY-F/FP split-type ultrasonic level meter is developed based on years of industrial application experience. The host and sensor are completely separated, effectively isolating the circuit from the probe and significantly improving long-term reliability in harsh environments. The instrument adopts large-scale integrated circuits, with a component patch rate of 90% and extremely low power consumption. It supports large-screen Chinese and English display, SD card data acquisition, serial data download, and can record ten interference echo points. This product combines accurate measurement, reliable operation, and elegant appearance. It can measure parameters such as material level, liquid level, volume, and weight, and is widely used in control system matching and automation projects.

Typical Application Scenarios
The Nexisense XY-F/FP split-type ultrasonic level meter is particularly suitable for material level and liquid level monitoring under complex and harsh working conditions:
Water and Wastewater Treatment: Continuous liquid level measurement in pump rooms, sump wells, biochemical reaction tanks, sedimentation tanks, etc., supporting high and low level alarms and pump control interlocking.
Power and Mining: Level monitoring in slurry pools, coal slurry pools, butter storage tanks, and stockyards, suitable for high-dust and viscous media.
Food Industry: Measurement of hygienic or corrosive media in fermentation tanks, grain silos, and food raw material storage tanks.
Chemical Storage Tanks and Mobile Equipment: Liquid level/material level control of acid and alkali solutions and adhesive materials, enabling remote monitoring via GPRS/WIFI.
Control System Integration: Seamless access to DCS, PLC, and SCADA systems through 4-20mA, RS485, or HART protocol to achieve data acquisition, remote adjustment, and automated control.
The split-type structure allows the sensor to be installed in high-temperature or strongly corrosive areas, while the host is placed in a safe and easy-to-operate environment, greatly improving the overall system reliability.
Selection Guide and Integration Considerations
To ensure optimal performance, it is recommended to follow the following steps for selection and integration:
Range Selection: Select the appropriate measuring range according to the actual container height and maximum material level, reserving sufficient blind zone (0.3-1.5m).
Sensor and Host Configuration: Sensor material (ABS/nylon) and installation interface (G1 1/2, M60×2, M30×1.5 or DN80 flange) are selected according to site conditions; the host can be ABS engineering plastic or cast aluminum.
Output and Communication Requirements: Use 4-20mA for basic monitoring; configure RS485, HART, or GPRS/Bluetooth/WIFI for remote transmission; 4-channel relay is recommended for alarm interlocking.
Special Functions: Custom sound velocity, mathematical function calculation, MiniSD card data acquisition, etc., are optional according to actual working conditions.
System Integration Considerations:
Keep the sensor installed vertically downward during installation, avoiding feed inlets, agitators, and pipe wall reflection interference.
Use shielded cables. Ensure good grounding of the host to reduce the impact of electromagnetic interference on RS485 or analog output.
Complete on-site calibration and parameter setting through the local buttons or host computer, supporting backup and restoration functions.
When accessing GPRS/WIFI, it is recommended to configure reliable power supply and network security measures.
For bulk projects, container dimensions, medium characteristics, and control system interfaces can be provided in advance to achieve factory pre-configuration and consistency testing.
