Zoo Animal Exhibit Tank Level Ultrasonic Level Measurement

Zoo Animal Water Exhibit Liquid Level Sensor
Zoo Animal Water Exhibit Liquid Level Transmitter When the Saint Louis Zoo needed reliable level measurement of their exhibit pools, they turned to Flowline. The pools are open to the environment, subject to rain, snow and seasonal temperature swings. The primary level challenge is water evaporation, accelerated by summer heat or condensing fog in the winter. During which, the pools can lose up to 500 gallons per day that must be replenished. The staff was dissatisfied with a prior ultrasonic level sensor, that became intermittent during the morning fog, when condensation rises to forms droplets on its transducer. For this reason, Flowline suggested our patented UG06 ultrasonic sensor that’s unaffected by condensation. The ultrasonic sensors provide reliable level data to the PLC, which monitors the pools and controls their fill valves. Flowline is reliable level measurement.
