Accurate means of measuring liquid level using LVDTs

Although there are various options for measuring liquid level in a tank, RDP Electronics Ltd are able to provide an LVDT based solution that can often be used where other methods are inappropriate. Typically the LVDT is fitted with a weighted float and installed with the transducer directed vertically downward towards the liquid surface. This approach is often suitable where the liquid inside may form a foam on top, precluding the use of optical ...
