Water & Wastewater
Measure and monitor wastewater stabilization ponds, or use for hull-to-water measurement in particularly rugged nautical applications.
Reliable Liquid Level Measurement of Volatile Chemicals
About the ToughSonic®-200.35
ToughSonic®-200 ultrasonic sensors provide cost-efficient liquid level measurement of acids, bases, and chemicals stored in tanks of all sizes. All TS-200 sensors include heavy-duty electronics and a ruggedized piezoelectric transducer housed in a rugged polyvinylidene fluoride (Kynar®) enclosure.
ToughSonic-200.35 ultrasonics measure both volatile and non-volatile liquids, including diesel and oil in fuel storage tanks, chemicals utilized in wastewater and food processing industries, agrichemicals used on fields, and benign liquid level applications.
Chemical-resistant ToughSonic sensors offer the same reliable functionality of TS-100 sensors in environments requiring distance ranging, flood monitoring, proximity detection, or pump and valve automation capabilities.
Advanced Features of the TS-200.35
Senix's TS-200 series sensors are built tough with chemical-resistant PVDF housings, epoxy-potted heavy-duty electronics, and isolated transducers.
The TS-200.35 provides the same reliable functionality of its general-purpose counterparts.
Utilize these ultrasonics for liquid level monitoring, environmental water measurement, and distance ranging—in addition to typical chemical applications.
- Medium-Range Measurements: Reliably monitor chemical levels or detect proximity of objects from up to 35 ft.
- Immune to Optical Changes: TS-200 sensors remain precise, regardless of color, reflectivity, or transparency of a target
- Awesome for Automation: Adjustable switch hysteresis and time delays for high/low level alarms and industrial pump controls
- Highly Rated Protection: NEMA-4X, NEMA-6P, and IP68 rated for resistance to water or dust ingress
Common Applications for ToughSonic-200 Series Ultrasonics
Senix's chemical-resistant ultrasonic sensors are designed for dependable performance in harsh chemical and industrial environments.
Chemical Management
Retain visibility of levels in hazardous liquid tanks, including vertical liquid storage tanks containing chemicals, acids, and compounds.
Continuous Tank Monitoring
View liquid levels as pump controls turn ON/OFF. Monitor dosing tanks to ensure proper batching of chemicals, water, or other liquids.
Easy-to-Optimize Outputs
ToughSonic-200 sensors offer five simultaneous outputs that are fully configurable with SensorView™ software to meet your network connectivity needs.
RS-232 or RS-485 Format

- Better noise immunity in industrial environments
- Allows longer cable lengths at higher baud rates
Multiple Outputs for Peak Connectivity
- Analog 0-10 VDC with motor drives & similar equipment
- Switches configurable as Sinking (NPN) or Sourcing (PNP)
- Two analog 4-20 mA current loops (sourcing and sinking) for process industry transmitter applications
Automated Measurements & Level Alerts
Chemical-resistant TS-200 series sensors integrate with local industrial equipment to support process automation.
BinCloud® remote monitoring software provides added functionality with remote level visibility and enhanced inventory control. Access it all at any time on a PC or mobile device.
- View real-time data anywhere—and on any device—with an internet connection
- Receive automated high/low level alerts when user-configurable liquid levels are reached at waterways or in tanks
- Get a glimpse into multiple tanks, worksites, or sensor locations with the centralized MultiView interface
- Utilize historical reports and usage forecasts for proactive ordering or planning
- Export data with the click of a button to meet regulatory compliance requirements or to send to flood mitigation planners
