Level Measurement
SubscribeLevel sensors detect the level of substances that flow, including liquids, slurries, granular materials and powders. Level detection sensors include vibrating, rotating paddle, mechanical diaphragm, microwave (or radar), capacitance, optical, pulsed-ultrasonic and ultrasonic. In deriving the value of the height of some material from a lower point to a higher point, some level measurement devices do so by “drawing” horizontal lines plumb and parallel to each other at the two points. Further refinements in measurement follow from this point.
