Allison lasermeter
A range of laser level transmitters, offering accurate, non-contact and continuous level measurement, has been launched by level and flow specialists Allison Engineering.
The KTEK LM80 lasermeter, which has been designed for use in applications involving bulk solids and opaque liquids, has a high frequency light source to help eliminate problems associated with ultrasonic and radar transmitters, such as false echoes caused by beam spread.
Another major benefit of using the LM80 is that its narrow wavelength allows the beam to reflect back along the same angle of incidence, even if the target is at an oblique angle, or has an uneven surface. The laser level transmitter can also be programmed to reject momentary intrusions by passing objects.
Mounted in any orientation, the LM80 operates more effectively when a glass or plastic shield is used for protection against aggressive/pressurized applications.
