Technical content

The Sure Cross® K50U sensor works in a variety of environments to provide a measurement of the distance between the target and the sensor. It is designed for plug-and-play use with the Wireless Q45U Node (or any other Banner 1-wire serial node), creating a cost-effective and easy-to-use solution for monitoring remote or mobile tanks and totes. Benefits

Doing so could lead to serious injury or death. This device does not include the self-checking redundant circuitry necessary to allow its use in personnel safety applications. A sensor failure or malfunction can cause either an energized or de-energized sensor output condition. Models Model Range and Frequency Supply Voltage I/O K50UX1ARA Range: 100 mm to 1 m (3.94 in to 39.4 in) Freq: 224 kHz 3.6 to 5.5 V dc or 10 to 30 V dc Distance to target using a 1-wire serial interface K50UX1CRA Range: 300 mm to 3 m (11.8 in to 118 in) Freq: 114 kHz Overview The K50U is an easy-to-use ultrasonic sensor with extended range and built-in temperature compensation. This sensor is designed to interface with a Node with 1-Wire Serial Interface. To install the sensor to either the serial Node or a cable, follow these instructions: 1. Align the notch in the Node’s or cable’s female connector with the key in the sensor’s male connector. 2. Gently slide the sensor end into the Node’s or cable’s connector. 3. Rotate the Node’s or cable’s threaded nut to tighten the sensor down. DO NOT attempt to rotate the sensor after it is connected to the Node’s serial port or the cable end, this will damage the sensor. Indicator LEDs communicate the status of the sensor. The flashing green Power LED indicates the sensor is in Run Mode (the sensor’s normal operating condition). Configure this sensor using the Sure Cross® Sensor Configuration Tool (instruction manual 170002) and adapter cable BWA- USB1WIRE-001 (datasheet 170020). Principles of Operation Ultrasonic sensors emit one or multiple pulses of ultrasonic energy, which travel through the air at the speed of sound. A portion of this energy reflects off the target and travels back to the sensor. The sensor measures the total time required for the energy to reach the target and return to the sensor. The distance to the object is then calculated using the following formula: D = ct ÷ 2 Sure Cross® U-GAGE K50U Ultrasonic Sensor Original Document 191599 Rev. F

D = distance from the sensor to the target c = speed of sound in air t = transit time for the ultrasonic pulse To improve accuracy, an ultrasonic sensor may average the results of several pulses before outputting a new value. Temperature Effects The speed of sound is dependent upon the composition, pressure and temperature of the gas in which it is traveling. For most ultrasonic applications, the composition and pressure of the gas are relatively fixed, while the temperature may fluctuate. In air, the speed of sound varies with temperature according to the following approximation: In metric units: C m/s = 2 0 √ 2 73 + T C In English units: ft/s = 49 √ 460 + T FC Cm/s = speed of sound in meters per second Cft/s = speed of sound in feet per second TC = temperature in °C TF = temperature in °F Temperature Compensation Changes in air temperature affect the speed of sound, which in turn affects the total time for the echo measured by the sensor. An increase in air temperature shifts both sensing window limits closer to the sensor. Conversely, a decrease in air temperature shifts both limits farther away from the sensor. This shift is approximately 3.5% of the limit distance for a 20° C change in temperature. The K50U series ultrasonic sensors are temperature compensated, to reduce sensor errors from temperature by about 90%. Exposure to direct sunlight can affect the sensor’s ability to accurately compensate for changes in temperature. LED Indicators Signal LED (red) Power LED (green) Power is Off Off Sensor is operating normally (power is on, sensor is in Run mode) Flashing Serial Communications Transmit/Receive Intermittent Flashing Error Continuous Flashing Reserved Off Self-Diagnostic Error Mode—In the unlikely event of a microprocessor memory error, the Signal LED continuously flashes. If this occurs, the setup parameters have been lost and the sensor may be corrupt. Contact your Banner representative for further information. Sensor Configuration Tool The Sensor Configuration Tool offers an easy way to manage sensor parameters, retrieve data, and visually show sensor data from a number of different sensors. The Sensor Configuration Tool software runs on any Windows machine and uses an adapter cable to connect the sensor to your computer.
