Questions and Answers

What is a level transducer and what is its purpose?

A level transducer is a device used to measure the level of a substance, such as liquid or solid, in a container or process. Its purpose is to provide continuous or discrete level measurements for various applications, such as industrial processes, storage tanks, or environmental monitoring.

What is continuous level measurement and how does it work?

Continuous level measurement is a method of measuring the level of a substance in a container or process in real-time. It involves using sensors or probes to continuously monitor the level and provide a continuous output signal, such as a current or voltage, which can be used for data logging or control purposes. The measurement can be based on different principles, such as hydrostatic pressure, ultrasonic waves, or capacitive sensing.

What is discrete level measurement and how does it differ from continuous level measurement?

Discrete level measurement is a method of measuring the level of a substance in a container or process at specific intervals. It involves using sensors or switches that provide a discrete output signal, such as an on/off signal, when the level reaches a certain threshold. This type of measurement is commonly used in applications where continuous monitoring is not required or practical, such as point level detection or alarm systems. Unlike continuous level measurement, discrete level measurement does not provide real-time information about the level changes between the intervals.
