How the liquid level sensor works

2026 06/17

Using the principle of static pressure measurement: when the liquid level sensor is put into a certain depth in the liquid to be measured, the pressure formula on the liquid surface of the sensor is: Ρ = ρ.g.H + Po where:
P: The pressure on the liquid surface of the transmitter
ρ: Density of measured liquid
g: local gravity acceleration
Po: Atmospheric pressure on the liquid surface
H: Depth of the transmitter into the liquid
At the same time, the pressure of the liquid is introduced into the positive pressure chamber of the sensor through the gas-guiding stainless steel, and then the atmospheric pressure Po on the liquid surface is connected to the negative pressure chamber of the sensor to offset the Po on the back of the sensor.
Let the pressure measured by the sensor be: ρ.g.H. Obviously, by measuring the pressure P, the liquid level depth can be obtained.
 
Features:
◆Good stability, long-term stability of full scale and zero position can reach 0.1%FS/year. Within the compensation temperature range of 0 to 70°C, the temperature drift is less than 0.1% FS and less than 0.3% FS within the entire allowable operating temperature range.
◆Equipped with reverse protection and current limiting protection circuit, the transmitter will not be damaged if the positive and negative poles are reversed during installation. In case of abnormality, the transmitter will automatically limit the current to within 35MA.
◆Solid structure, no moving parts, high reliability and long service life.
◆Easy to install, simple in structure, economical and durable.
