Description

The DYP-U022M4W-V1.0 ultrasonic sensor employs high-frequency sound waves to accurately determine the distance to a liquid surface. Its advanced signal processing includes intelligent filtering and environmental compensation algorithms, ensuring stable and reliable readings even in dynamic conditions such as moving vehicles or vibrating machinery. The sensor’s narrow beam angle (2-4°) enhances measurement accuracy by minimizing reflections from container walls.

Engineered for durability, the unit is housed in a corrosion-resistant metal casing with complete internal potting to protect against moisture, fuel vapors, and mechanical shock. This design, combined with an external 3M adhesive pad and dedicated metal mounting bracket, allows for quick, secure, and permanent installation on a wide range of tank materials, including metal and plastic, without the need for drilling or surface preparation.

Key Features

  • Millimeter-Level Measurement Precision: High-resolution ultrasonic detection with built-in compensation models for consistent, accurate data output.
  • IP68 Sealed & Potted Enclosure: Fully waterproof metal housing with internally potted electronics ensures long-term reliability in wet and corrosive environments.
  • Multi-Protocol Communication Flexibility: Offers RS485 (Modbus), RS232, 0-5V analog, and TTL serial outputs for maximum compatibility with controllers and data loggers.
  • Wide-Range DC Power Input: Accepts 12V to 48V DC, suitable for direct connection to truck batteries, industrial power rails, and backup systems.
  • Penetrative Sensing Capability: Ultrasonic waves penetrate container walls up to 5mm thick, enabling external mounting on sealed tanks.
  • Optimized for Mobile Applications: Features anti-vibration algorithms and filtering to maintain measurement stability in moving vehicles.
  • Simplified Installation Kit: Includes a robust metal fixing bracket and high-strength waterproof adhesive for a secure, tool-free mount.

Applications

  • Vehicle Fuel Tank Monitoring: Real-time fuel level tracking for fleet management, logistics trucks, buses, and construction equipment.
  • Industrial Liquid Storage Tanks: External level measurement for chemical, water, or oil storage tanks where internal sensors are impractical.
  • Mobile Hydraulic & Lubrication Systems: Monitoring fluid levels in hydraulic reservoirs and onboard lubrication tanks on heavy machinery.
  • Telematics & IoT Asset Tracking: Integrating level data into remote asset monitoring platforms via RS485 Modbus networks.
  • Agricultural & Marine Fluid Management: Measuring diesel, fertilizer, or water levels in agricultural equipment and marine vessels.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the power supply requirement for this ultrasonic fuel level sensor?

The sensor operates on a wide-range DC input of 12V to 48V, with an average current consumption of ≤25mA. This makes it directly compatible with standard 12V/24V vehicle electrical systems and common industrial 24V/48V DC power supplies without requiring an additional voltage regulator.

What communication interfaces does this sensor support?

It provides multiple output options for maximum flexibility: RS485 (typically Modbus RTU protocol), RS232, a 0-5V analog voltage signal proportional to the level, and a TTL-level UART serial output. You can select the interface that best matches your data acquisition device, such as a PLC, telematics gateway, or microcontroller.

How do I install this sensor on a fuel tank?

Installation is non-invasive and external. Clean the outer surface of the tank in the desired location. The sensor can be secured using the included high-strength 3M waterproof adhesive pad or the dedicated metal fixing bracket for a more permanent mechanical mount. Ensure the sensing face is flush against the tank wall, which must be between 0.6mm and 5.0mm thick for optimal ultrasonic penetration.

Can this sensor measure other liquids besides fuel?

Yes. While optimized for fuel, its ultrasonic non-contact principle allows it to measure the level of various non-foaming liquids, including water, oils, and chemicals, stored in compatible metal or plastic containers. The built-in algorithms filter out interference for stable readings in dynamic environments.

What is the sensor's protection rating and construction?

The sensor features a rugged metal housing with an IP68 waterproof rating, meaning it is dust-tight and can withstand continuous immersion in water. Internally, the electronic circuitry is fully potted with epoxy resin, providing excellent protection against vibration, moisture ingress, and corrosive fuel vapors for long-term reliability in harsh conditions.
