Liquid Level Indicating
Liquid Level Indicating
(OP)
Im looking for a liquid level indicator for a new test bench run by a Micrologix. I cant seem to find something that is capable of measuring a 15 oz difference in fluid level.
The problem Im finding is that they can cost upward of a grand - not feasible for what we're trying to accomplish.

RE: Liquid Level Indicating
Do you need continuious level"
Fluid?
Level range in " or mm
Do you have an air supply available?
RE: Liquid Level Indicating
Ive got all the air you need - or I need in this case.
RE: Liquid Level Indicating
Another option capacitance
A crude float type using a potentiometer.
It might be less hassle to just buy a low range DP transmitter on e-bay.
Check out the Omega catalog for level.

Don't try measuring your fluid pressure directly, that's why I suggest a bubble tube.
HEC, We use bubble tubes all the time for measuring very low differential on interface and density applications, mainly because our applications are very nasty and other types will not stand up.

The media is Turbine Oil - Texaco R&O 68.

I assume your tank is about 24" high.
Even if you dont use the whole range of the cell it should give you enough resolution.

I can build the tank to whatever spec necessary to accomodate the sensor. This should work out just fine!

The Probe LU has far better functionality than the Probe.
Caveat Emptor.
