Measuring principle
The IFL 70x IQ is based on the ultrasonic measuring principle. Ultra-
sonic waves transmitted by the ultrasonic transducer are totally or
partly reflected by layers at which the density of the measuring medium
changes (e.g. sludge blanket, bottom of the basin), and then received
again. Based on the reflection intervals, the distance between the lev-
els and the ultrasonic transducer is determined:
