An apparatus for detecting the level of a liquid in a container by modulating the intensity of light propagating through a fiber-optic light guide, a section of which has the cladding removed or partially removed. The system consists of a light source which is coupled into the input end of a fiber, a section of fiber from which the cladding is removed, a liquid-containing vessel into which the unclad fiber section can become immersed, and a detector at the output end of the fiber.
