TSH22 – Hydrostatic Submersible Level Gauge

The TSH22 is a precision submersible level sensor that provides digital output of water level and temperature via an RS485 interface.

  • High level measurement accuracy (0.1% of the measurement range)
  • Excellent long-term stability
  • Very low temperature dependence due to microprocessor-based signal processing
  • Measurement ranges from 0..1 m to 0..10 m v.s.
  • Integrated temperature sensor inside the transducer
  • Level sensor diameter of 22 mm for installation even in narrow boreholes
  • Durable stainless steel sensor body
  • RS485 communication interface—FINET or Modbus RTU communication protocols
  • Optional connector for easy recalibration of the level sensor
  • Special semi-permeable filter preventing air moisture from entering the sensor’s compensation capillary

Description

The TSH22 pressure sensor for measuring water level and temperature features high measurement accuracy (0.1% FSO) and very low temperature dependence of the measured value.
The level sensor is based on a 19 mm sensor with a stainless steel diaphragm. A built-in microprocessor compensates for the sensor’s temperature dependence and any nonlinearity. Water temperature is measured by a separate sensor located within the sensor housing and can be transmitted, along with the level, to a connected host system via the RS485 serial interface.
The level meters come standard with the FINET communication protocol, which allows for quick and easy connection to all FIEDLER AMS data loggers. Upon request, the level meters can also be supplied with a Modbus RTU interface.

Applications

  • Measuring groundwater levels
  • Environmental monitoring
  • Monitoring water levels and temperatures in open waterways
  • Basic sensor for early warning systems (LVS)
  • Level measurement in sumps and water tanks
  • Level monitoring in industrial facilities
