The working of this type of level measuring device is based on the Archimedes principle of buoyancy. According to the Archimedes principle, a body that is immersed in a liquid will be buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the liquid it displaces. There will be an upward pressure which will be …

A magnetic level indicator can provide accurate level measurement, it can provide a high clarity indication of the liquid level. A magnetic level indicator consists of three major components and they are float chamber, float, and indicator system. A magnetic level indicator is principally designed as an alternative to glass level gauges. So the magnetic …
A solid level detector is a device that can be used to detect the level of the solid materials in a bulk. It is really important to measure and control the solid level in a process. Solid level detectors can be classified into two types and they are continuous and fixed, the continuous type of …

The optical level sensors can be used for high temperature and high-pressure applications it is used for point level sensing. So these sensors can be used for point level detection and also for the continuous monitoring of solids and liquids. These sensors would measure the level of liquids that have suspended solids, optical level sensors …

What is a vibration level switch and what are its types Vibrating level switches are used to do the level measurement, the operating is based on detecting the damping in a submerged probe when it is submerged in a process medium. There are three types of vibration switches and they are reed, probe, and tuning …

What is a level switch and why is it used? A level switch can be described as a device that can sense the level of a liquid in a process tank. A level switch is also used to control valves and pumps so that it can maintain the fluid level at a set value and …
The hook type level sensor is a direct level measurement, this type of level indicator has a wire which could be corrosion resistance alloy and this would be bent into U-shaped with one arm longer than the other. In this device it has a hook that is connected to a micrometer cylinder and this device …

A guided wave radar sensor is a type of radar level sensor there are two types of radar level sensors they are through the air and guided type. This device can be used to measure the liquid level and it can also be used to do the liquid-liquid interface level measurement and this can be …
Some of the level sensing devices operate by sensing or detecting the differences in the electrical properties, which is created by the interference of the process materials. These properties are capacitance, conductivity, and resistance. What is level measurement and what are the types of level measurement? What is a radar level transmitter and how can …
