Description

The DYP-L062M4W-V1.0 employs high-frequency ultrasonic pulses to perform precise, non-contact level sensing of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and similar substances. Its measurement principle ensures safety by eliminating direct contact with the hazardous medium, while the RS485 interface provides robust, long-distance communication suitable for industrial installations.

Engineered for reliability, the sensor features electrostatic protection on all I/O lines compliant with IEC61000-4-2, and its IP67 enclosure protects against dust and temporary immersion. The device supports real-time, full-range tracking without requiring a reset when containers are refilled, making it ideal for continuous remote monitoring applications via IoT gateways.

Key Features

  • High-precision ultrasonic sensing with ±(5+S*1%)mm accuracy
  • Wide operating voltage range (3.3V to 5V DC) with low average current consumption (≤20mA)
  • Configurable UART baud rates from 4800 to 115200 for flexible system integration
  • Robust IP67-rated industrial design for harsh environmental durability
  • Integrated tilt sensor (0-180°) for verifying proper horizontal installation
  • Electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection on all data and power lines
  • Ultra-low power sleep mode (<15µA) enables long-term battery operation
  • Non-contact measurement ensures sensor longevity and safety with corrosive media

Applications

  • Remote level monitoring of LPG tanks in residential and commercial installations
  • Industrial inventory management for bulk liquefied gas storage vessels
  • IoT-based safety systems for leak detection and fuel consumption tracking
  • Integration with NB-IoT/LoRaWAN gateways for smart city utility monitoring
  • Condition monitoring in chemical processing and hazardous material handling

Frequently Asked Questions

What communication protocols does this ultrasonic level sensor support?

The sensor supports multiple digital interfaces: UART (in both automatic and controlled modes), I2C, and RS485 Modbus. The default UART baud rate is 115200, but it is configurable down to 4800 bps for compatibility with various PLCs, microcontrollers (Arduino, ESP32, STM32), and IoT gateways.

What is the sensor's blind zone, and how does it affect installation?

The sensor has a standard blind zone of ≤30mm from its transducer face. No accurate measurements can be taken within this distance. For proper operation, the target liquid surface must be positioned beyond this 30mm point, within the 30mm to 1000mm measurement range.

Is this sensor suitable for outdoor or harsh environment use?

Yes, the sensor is built with an IP67-rated enclosure, making it dust-tight and capable of withstanding temporary immersion in water up to 1 meter for 30 minutes. Its operating temperature range of -15°C to +60°C and integrated ESD protection make it suitable for industrial and outdoor installations.

How accurate is the measurement, and what factors influence it?

The accuracy is specified as ±(5 + S*1%)mm, where 'S' is the measured distance in mm. This means the error margin increases slightly with distance. For example, at 500mm, accuracy is ±10mm. Factors like temperature extremes, acoustic interference, or surface foam can influence performance and should be considered during system design.

Can this sensor be used with battery-powered systems?

Absolutely. The sensor features a very low sleep current of less than 15µA when placed in UART-controlled sleep mode. Its average operating current is ≤20mA. By strategically cycling between active measurement and sleep states, it can be integrated into long-life, battery-powered remote monitoring solutions.
