The NivuCompact is a compact echo sounder for non-contact ultrasonic measurement of level, distance, space or volume. NivuCompact can be used wherever reliable non-contact level measurement is required.
Thanks to its very quick startup time of 4 seconds until value output, the NivuCompact is particularly suitable for battery-powered logger operation. High transducer power and tight beam angle in addition with digital echo pro-cessing make the NivuCompact an ideal tool for many "difficult" applications. The integrated display makes programming extremely simple. The NivuCompact is available as 2- or 3-wire version in one unit.
