Non-contact liquid level sensor

Non-contact fluid level sensor detects fluids within non metallic containers from outside the container without direct contact to the fluids. Idealy suited for lead acid batteries, fuel tanks, water storage tanks and any application where contact with the fluid or penetrations in the tank are not allowed.The sensors work on an inductance principle so they work fine with opaque material such as dark plastic, anything non metallic

Product Highlights:

  • All electronic based circuit, no mechanical parts to fail over time.
  • No tank penetration required, can sense though non metallic containers.
  • Immune from interference by EMI, nearby motors or electronics.
  • Wide power supply tolerant, from 5V to 24VDC.

Description

The non-contact fluid level sensor is an intelligent device that uses the inductive capacitance of water to detect the presence of liquid. When no liquid is near, the sensor holds a static capacitance to the ground due to its distributed capacitance.

As the liquid rises, its parasitic capacitance combines with the sensor’s static capacitance, increasing the total capacitance value. The control IC receives this change and converts it into a circuit signal. When the variation exceeds a defined threshold, it indicates that the liquid level has reached the sensing point.
