General Information
About MiniRanger Plus
Note:
The MiniRanger Plus is to be used only in the manner outlined in this
instruction manual.
MiniRanger Plus is a versatile material level monitoring instrument. Material
level measurement is achieved using advanced sonic echo ranging
techniques. The unit is complete with an integral multifunction liquid crystal
display, a four button keypad and an integral junction box.
Remotely coupled to an appropriate transducer, MiniRanger Plus is well
suited for short to medium range measurements of liquids or solids, in open
or closed vessels. MiniRanger Plus is at home in a wide variety of industries:
food, pharmaceutical, chemical, water, waste water - to name a few.
The MiniRanger Plus emits a series of ultrasonic pulses from the associated
transducer. Each pulse is reflected as an echo from the material and sensed
by the transducer. The echo is processed by the MiniRanger using Milltronics'
proven Sonic Intelligence
®
techniques. Filtering is applied to help discriminate
between the true echo from the material, and false echoes from acoustical and
electrical noise and agitator blades in motion. The time for the pulse to travel to
the material and back is temperature compensated and then converted into
distance for display, mA output and relay actuation, and optional volume.
MiniRanger Plus is available in three physical styles for wall, rack or panel
mounting.

multi-field LCD for: parameter, reading and bar graph display, and relay
