These rugged, compact ultrasonic sensors inspired the “ToughSonic” name. They are Senix’s flagship products with heavy-duty electronics epoxy potted into type 316 stainless steel housings, with permanently attached cables and ruggedized piezoelectric transducers. ToughSonic sensors are found on remote monitoring stations from the Australian outback to Alaskan oil fields. They are installed on heavy construction and farm equipment and in some of the harshest factory environments.
-
All sensors include serial data communications to connect with SenixVIEW setup software or your equipment. Choose either the RS-232 or RS-485 model, with the following communications format:
Selectable Modbus (default) or ASCII streaming protocols
Baud rates from 9600 (default) to 115200 bps
Many other features, all adjustable using SenixVIEW software
Senix recommends the RS-485 Serial Data Interface unless connecting to an RS-232 device. The benefits of RS-485 over RS-232 include:
Multi-sensor Modbus-addressable RS-485 networks
Better noise immunity in industrial environments
Allows longer cable lengths at higher baud rates
Bottom line: more capability and high value

Applications
Flood Monitoring
Senix ToughSonic® sensors measure the level of water flowing in streams and rivers. Sensors mounted on bridges, poles, and other structures look down at the water to report flood status.
Open Channel Flow
Open Channel Flow measurement determines the volume of water, effluent or industrial waste flowing through a channel, flume or weir. Flumes and weirs are hydraulic structures within which the liquid flow rate is determined by measuring the height of the liquid flowing through the structure. That height is converted to flow using an equation specific to the structure. Positioned at the required location, ToughSonic sensors measure the liquid height by non-contact distance measurement looking down at the liquid surface.
Agriculture and Farming
Level & Distance Measurement
Senix ultrasonic sensors also assist in fertilizer application, and help monitor crops, and can also be utilized in a variety of vehicle applications in agriculture, construction, and municipality vehicles including improving safety by alerting operators of obstacles and moving vehicles in their immediate surroundings. The ruggedness of Senix ToughSonic ultrasonic Distance and Level sensors to temperature, shock, and vibration makes them extremely well suited suitable for outdoor applications.
Tank Liquid Level Monitoring
Senix non-contact ToughSonic® ultrasonic sensors offer cost-effective, continuous tank level monitoring and measurements for small and large tanks. They install at the top of the tank, are not immersed in the liquid, and can measure both benign and chemical liquids.
