“smart cavitation meters for your cleaning tanks”
Measures both Cavitation energy and frequency in your ultrasonic or megasonic tanks, which allow you to:
- measure your cleaning tank performance
- set your tank energy level
- establish tank to tank uniformity
- map the energy variations in your tank
ppb manufactures four models of meters that measure the cavitation energy and frequency within ultrasonic and megasonic cleaning tanks:
- pb-500 Ultrasonic Energy Meter (0 to 500 kHz)
- pb-100 Ultrasonic Energy Meter II (0 to 500 kHz)
- pb-501 Megasonic Energy Meter (500 kHz to 5 MHz)
- pb-502 Ultrasonic/Megasonic Energy Meter (0 to 5 MHz)
The multifrequency meters detect the RMS energy in W/in2 and also detect the frequency. Readings are processed 1.5 times per second for fast and accurate display on the front panel LCD.
The meter is battery operated with 100 memory locations. PLC compatible with RS-232 downloading capabilities of date, time, average cavitation energy, standard deviation, maximum, minimum and frequency.
As a low cost version of the Ultrasonic Energy Meter, the Ultrasonic Energy Meter II measures and displays only instant cavitation energy. All other features are disabled.

CONTINUOUSLY MONITORS CAVITATION ENERGY AND FREQUENCY IN ULTRASONIC AND MEGASONIC CLEANING TANKS
- 4-20 mA & 0-10 Vdc energy outputs.
- 4-20 mA & 0-10 Vdc frequency outputs.
- 0 to 5 MHz (5000 kHz) frequency range.
- DIN Rail and Wall Mountable.
The bx-502 is a panel-mount-ready unit designed to continuously monitor cavitation energy and frequency in your ultrasonic and megasonic cleaning tanks.
It is designed to provide a non-isolated 4 to 20 mA current output and a 0 to 10 Vdc output which are proportional to the cavitation energy density present within a cleaning tank. The unit also provides a non-isolated 4 to 20 mA current output and a 0 to 10 Vdc output which are proportional to the Ultrasonic-Megasonic frequency.
The transmitter may be connected to a PLC or to a dual display for passive monitoring of both the energy and frequency. The transmitter may also be used to maintain and control the tank energy via a PLC or standard controller by providing a feedback to the generator.
Specifications
The transmitter accommodates both the bx-208 or bx-308 probes, which are tank-mountable versions of the pb-208 and pb-308, respectively.
