Level Measurement

It can be defined as the determination of the location of the

interface between two fluids separable by gravity with respect
to a fixed detum plane.
The most common liquid measurement is that of the
interface between a liquid and a gas and other are the interface
between two liquids, between a granular or fluidized solid and
a gas, and between a liquid and its vapour.

SIGHT GLASS LEVEL INDICATOR

Sight glass instrument consists
of glass tube. This glass tube
is fitted with Tank.
The liquid is filled in
The tank in the tank. Liquid
level is
measured by this.

SIGHT GLASS LEVEL INDICATOR

Advantage:
Direct reading is possible.
It is available in 316 c & 10,000 PSI
Range.
Disadvantage:
It is not useful for heavy, viscous
liquid.

CAPACITANCE LEVEL INDICATOR

It consists one insulated
capacitance probe. The
Probe is fixed near metal
tank. The device which is
measure Capacitance is fixed
with probe & metal tank.
When the level of liquid
increases, the capacitance

is indicated
on the calibrate indicator.
