FILL LEVEL MEASUREMENT SYSTEM

摘要

A fill-level measurement apparatus for measuring a fill level of a fluid in a container includes a housing having a first end and a second end and first and second substantially identical thin capacitive sensors mounted on a carrier plate in the housing. The carrier plate includes a circuit board and a microcontroller is mounted on the circuit board. The first sensor is mounted in the housing at a first distance from the first end with a surface portion in contact with a first inner wall portion of the housing, and the second sensor is mounted in the housing between the first sensor and the second end of the housing with a clearance of 0.5 to 10 centimeters from a second inner wall portion of the housing, and the first sensor and the second sensor are configured to communicate with the microcontroller.
