• Introducing
The DCR-1005 and DCR-1006 controller with DST series sensors were
specifically designed to provide a rugged and reliable non-contact sensor
system that is easily programmed yet flexible enough to use in a wide range of
applications.
The DCR-1005 and DCR-1006 controllers have a 0.5 in. 4 character LCD
display to show readings and parameters. The controller can be configured to
monitor distance, level or volume. The DCR-1005 comes standard with four relay
outputs. The DCR-1006 also includes an isolated 4 - 20 mA output.
The DST series sensors are non-contact ultrasonic sensors which measure
the distance to a target through air. A list of available sensors can be found
under DST Specifications, found at the end of this manual starting on page 35.
Typical applications include:
• Monitoring water levels in a well
• Determining material volume in a tank
• Obstacle avoidance
• Product dimensioning
• Loop control
