Drill two holes and cut the threads, prepare the surface, place the strain sensor and tighten both screws to the specified torque, then set the zero point and now the strain measurement can start. If only it were that easy! Of course, the procedure described for …

Level sensors – the agony of choice?
| Enrico Bossart | ProductsIf one is looking for a level sensor, one can be quickly overwhelmed by the huge selection. A level sensor for limit level detection or continuous measurement can be ordered in a variety of technologies and design variants. But how do I find the right level sensor for …
What exactly is a level probe / submersible pressure transmitter?
| Sabine Mai | LevelThe submersible pressure transmitter, sometimes also referred to as a level probe, is a special type of pressure sensor used for level measurements in e.g. tanks, wells, shafts and bore holes. For level measurements, the level probe is submersed directly into the …
How to measure the level of a liquid in a tank or how does the hydrostatic level measurement work?
| Anna Gries | LevelThe level of a liquid such as water or oil in a tank or vessel can be measured indirectly by means of the hydrostatic pressure of the so-called “liquid column”. The hydrostatic pressure under a static liquid column increases directly with the height of the liquid …
