发明名称 Liquid level sensing systems
摘要 A liquid level sensing system includes a vessel and an electrode. The vessel includes a vessel wall separating a vessel interior from a vessel exterior. The electrode is mounted to an exterior side of the vessel wall spanning a distance corresponding to a desired-level-determining range. The vessel wall is a dielectric gap between the electrode and the vessel interior. The electrode is configured to collect a charge corresponding to a liquid level. A method for determining a liquid level in a vessel includes collecting a charge on an electrode, sensing the collected charge on the electrode with a capacitance sensor through an electrical line, and determining a liquid level in a vessel based on the collected charge sensed by the capacitance sensor.

主权项 1. A liquid level sensing system comprising: a vessel including a vessel wall separating a vessel interior from a vessel exterior; and a single electrode mounted to an exterior side of the vessel wall spanning a distance corresponding to a desired-level-determining range, wherein the electrode is configured to collect a charge corresponding to a liquid level, and wherein the vessel wall is a dielectric gap between the electrode and the vessel interior.
