Level gauges
Float switches, level dip probes, leak detectors, level switches, continuous level gauges.
Level gauges detect the level of liquids and bulk materials. The material to be measured may be in containers, bins or silos. Level measurement can be continuous or spot. Continuous level sensors measure the level within a defined area and determine the exact amount of substance at a specific location, while point sensors only indicate whether the substance is above or below the sensor point. In general, they detect high or low levels of process media.
There are many physical and applied variables that influence the choice of the optimum level monitoring method for industrial and commercial processes. Level gauges are one of the very important indicators and play a very important role in various consumer/industrial applications. As with other types of sensors, they are available or can be built using different sensing principles. Choosing the right type of sensor/gauge to meet the application requirements is very important.
