Liquid level sensing system

A linear liquid level sensing system (10) comprises a vessel (20), an electrically conductive liquid (30) contained within the vessel (20), and a collector (40) spanning a vertical distance corresponding to the desired-level-determining range. An insulator (50) encases the collector (40) to define a...

Zusammenfassung:A linear liquid level sensing system (10) comprises a vessel (20), an electrically conductive liquid (30) contained within the vessel (20), and a collector (40) spanning a vertical distance corresponding to the desired-level-determining range. An insulator (50) encases the collector (40) to define a dielectric gap between it and the fluid (30), with the insulated area in contact with the fluid (30) correlating with the fluid level. A single electrical line (60) connects the collector (40) to both a voltage-supplying source (70) and a charge-sensing device (80).
