The principle behind a pulsed-ultrasonic technology is that the transmit signal consists of short bursts of ultrasonic energy. For many processes in the medical, pharmaceutical, military and general industries this is an advantage over inline sensors that may contaminate the liquids inside a vessel or tube or that may be clogged by the product.īoth continuous wave and pulsed systems are used. Detection and ranging Non-contact sensorĪn ultrasonic level or sensing system requires no contact with the target. Ultrasound generator/speaker systems are sold as electronic pest control devices, which are claimed to frighten away rodents and insects, but there is no scientific evidence that the devices work. In the order Clupeiformes, members of the subfamily Alosinae ( shad) have been shown to be able to detect sounds up to 180 kHz, while the other subfamilies (e.g. Several types of fish can detect ultrasound. Porpoises have the highest known upper hearing limit at around 160 kHz. Toothed whales, including dolphins, can hear ultrasound and use such sounds in their navigational system ( biosonar) to orient and to capture prey. The frequency of most dog whistles is within the range of 23 to 54 kHz. A dog whistle is a whistle that emits ultrasound, used for training and calling dogs. The wild ancestors of cats and dogs evolved this higher hearing range to hear high-frequency sounds made by their preferred prey, small rodents. ĭogs and cats' hearing range extends into the ultrasound the top end of a dog's hearing range is about 45 kHz, while a cat's is 64 kHz. Tiger moths also emit clicks which may disturb bats' echolocation, and in other cases may advertise the fact that they are poisonous by emitting sound. Ultrasonic frequencies trigger a reflex action in the noctuid moth that causes it to drop slightly in its flight to evade attack. Upon hearing a bat, some insects will make evasive manoeuvres to escape being caught. These include many groups of moths, beetles, praying mantids and lacewings. Many insects have good ultrasonic hearing, and most of these are nocturnal insects listening for echolocating bats. They can detect frequencies beyond 100 kHz, possibly up to 200 kHz.
