Description Model TR-2436/150
The Massa Model TR-2436/150 is an ultrasonic air transducer that operates in
the 150 kHz frequency region. It is encased in a solid plastic housing, which
results in a robust package with a completely sealed face.
The transducer is typically used in non-contact echo ranging applications
where either a single TR-2436/150 is used to first transmit a short duration
acoustic signal, and then receives the echo reflected from a target; or two
separate transducers are used, one to transmit and one to receive. The two
system curves show how these transducers operate in these types of echo ranging
systems.
The System Echo Response Curve shows the typical voltage as a function of
frequency produced on the receiving transducer by an echo from a flat target at
a distance of 30 cm. The sound pulse was generated by applying a 1 Volt
electrical signal to the transmitting drive voltage.
The System Directional Response shows the relative reduction in the received
voltage produced by the echo as the target rotates to different bearing angles.
The maximum system response is at the bearing perpendicular to the face of the
transducer
