ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to damping pads and accoustical horns for use with transducer assemblies. The problems of proximity detection ranges, subfreezing operating temperature ranges, ringing and backwave reflection are addressed. In a preferred embodiment of an ultrasonic level control indicator using a piezoelectric transducer, a resilient, compressible sound absorbing damping material (like polyurethane pads) is compressed against the transducer vibrating member to decrease ringing and backwave effects. An acoustical horn assembly with a tapered opening is positioned adjacent the transducer to improve the signal.
