Concepts of fibre optic intensity sensors for liquid level measurement

Borecki Michal, Kruszewski Jerzy, Kopczynski Krzysztof

Abstract

Presents an analysis of two new fibre optic liquid level sensors that make use of the reflection phenomenon. The first sensor is of a threshold type. Its head is the knife-edge type fibre tip. The second sensor is of a continuous processing type. Its head has a rubber membrane. These sensors have two major advantages, i.e., simple construction and one fibre used for sending and receiving information.
