Senix ToughSonic 50
Product Information
These rugged, compact ultrasonic sensors inspired the “ToughSonic” name. They are Senix's flagship products with heavy-duty electronics epoxy potted into type 316 stainless steel housings, with permanently attached cables and ruggedized piezoelectric transducers. ToughSonic sensors are found on remote monitoring stations from the Australian outback to Alaskan oil fields. They are installed on heavy construction and farm equipment and in some of the harshest factory environments. When an ordinary sensor just won’t do, you need a ToughSonic.
