The SC5X – Series

SC5X – Series: The next generation multi-use transducer

Even more powerful thanks to new design

The SC5X series sees our multi-use transducers unveiled in a redesigned format and with even better performance. When driven appropriately, SECO Sensor’s multi-use transducers combine the comparatively long range of directional ultrasonic transducers with the fast repetition rate of pulsed transducers.

This makes them universally applicable products that can be used to design industrial sensors for a wide range of measuring tasks.

SC5X ultrasonic transducers are our next-generation multi-use transducers. Depending on their size, they operate in a frequency range of 80 to 400 kHz and deliver the high echo voltage typical of multi-use transducers.

Thanks to the optimized design, they score points with even shorter settling and decay times and thus enable higher repetition rates – for more efficiency in your production!

multi-use transducer from SECO Sensor are ideal for anemometry applications

Ultrasonic transducers from our SC5X series:

The SC517 transducer has been specially designed for use as a transmitter in combination with highly sensitive PMUTs as receivers. When used with piezoelectric micromechanical ultrasonic transducers, such as those from TDK, maximum ranges of several metres are possible. Please also read our article “SECO+PMUT for ranges of up to 30 metres”.

How can you use the SC5X…

…measure at high speed?

Short rise and fall times enable rapid measurements and high repetition rates – for accurate measurements in near real time.

…sound far away?

Our redesigned, high-performance model offers a long range of between one and six metres.

…reliably detect?

Die optionale Montage in unserem robusten Metallschirm erhöht die Widerstandsfähigkeit und EMV-Verträglichkeit der SC5X-Ultraschallwandler.

Applications from practice

Automation with ultrasonic transducers from SECO Sensor

Level measurement

Fast and contactless determination of fill levels even in small containers.

Web edge control in packaging with ultrasonic transducers from SECO Sensor

Distance measurement

Distance measurement and presence detection in automated production lines.

Ultrasonic transducers for medical technology from SECO Sensor

Flow measurement

Wear-free transit time difference measurement for air and gases, e.g. also in medical technology.

Why ultrasonic transducers from SECO Sensor?

Ultrasonic transducers from SECO Sensor can be used in conjunction with air or gas for almost all industrial measurement tasks. In the pulse-echo method, for example, they enable the non-contact measurement of distance, level or flow, whilst in transmitter-receiver mode they facilitate double-sheet detection and web edge control. Particularly practical: no wearing parts are used, meaning the transducers are completely maintenance-free. We are happy to develop and manufacture exactly the ultrasonic transducer you need and tailor it specifically to your particular measurement task and installation situation. SECO Sensor offers you numerous mounting options and additional equipment. Do you have a complicated or unusual measurement task, or perhaps just an idea?
