170710 Analog ultrasound sensor<br />

2/2<br />

The sensor is protected against reverse polarity.<br />

The sensor output supplies an impressed current and is loaded during short-circuit operation.<br />

Ideally, the output should be loaded with a resistance of R L =0Ω.<br />

The oszillations at the beginning and the end of the characteristic curve are caused by<br />

the type of sensor construction.<br />

For the characteristic curve displayed, the distance between the sensor and the bottom<br />

of the container was adjusted to 330 mm.<br />
