The APOLLO Ultrasonic Sensor (compatible with models AP655F, AP355F, and 372-0971) is a critical component in modern asphalt paving systems, designed to ensure precision, efficiency, and consistency in road construction. This high-quality sensor serves as a direct replacement for OEM parts, offering reliable performance while maintaining compatibility with advanced control systems. Its primary role is to enable non-contact measurement of grade and slope, allowing pavers to achieve flawless mat smoothness and accuracy.
The ultrasonic sensor operates by emitting high-frequency sound waves toward a target surface (e.g., stringline or existing pavement). The waves reflect back to the sensor, which calculates distance based on the echo return time. This data is transmitted to the paver's control system, which adjusts the screed's hydraulic actuators to maintain desired grade and slope. The continuous process ensures real-time corrections and unparalleled accuracy during paving operations.
In asphalt paving, precision is paramount. Even minor deviations in grade or slope can lead to costly rework, material waste, or compromised road durability. The APOLLO ultrasonic sensor addresses these challenges by ensuring smoothness through automatic adjustments, improving efficiency by reducing manual interventions, and enhancing quality through consistent mat thickness and slope for improved pavement longevity.
The sensor is explicitly designed for AP655F and AP355F asphalt pavers, replacing OEM part 372-0971. Applications include grade control for maintaining elevation relative to reference, slope control for precise cross-slope angles, and stringless paving integration with 3D GPS-guided systems.
APOLLO sensors are engineered to meet demanding road construction standards. They combine durability, accuracy, and ease of use, making them ideal for contractors seeking to maximize productivity and minimize downtime. By leveraging advanced ultrasonic technology, these sensors help achieve the highest levels of paving quality while reducing long-term operating costs.
