A review on capacitive-type sensor for measurement of height of liquid level

Abstract

The capacitive sensors are used in a variety of industrial and automotive application. A capacitive sensor converts a change in position, or properties of dielectric material into an electrical signal. These properties of capacitor can be used to measure the liquid level in storage tanks. The various aspects and configurations of capacitive liquid level measurement have been described. Here, review is also done on the several types of liquid level measurement techniques using capacitive sensor, for conducting and non-conducting liquid.
