What is the DST ultrasonic level sensor used for?

The DST ultrasonic level sensor is designed for accurate liquid level measurement and pump control in large tanks and liquid storage applications. It works seamlessly with DCR controllers to provide a complete stand-alone level monitoring system.

DST sensors are optimized for use with APG’s DCR series controllers. Compatibility with other controllers depends on the communication and power requirements.

DST sensors are primarily designed for liquid level measurement. While they may work in some solid-level applications, performance depends on surface reflectivity and environmental conditions.
