| Measuring Water Level | Water Level can be measured with a number of different sensors: - Hydrostatic Level Sensors : these are pressure sensors which respond to the weight of water above the sensor. Vented pressure sensors have a vent tube from the sensor to atmosphere and return the actual water pressure. Un-vented sensors return the sum of the water and air pressures. They are cheaper to produce but must be comensated using a barometric pressure sensor - Ultrasonic Level Sensors: these are non-contact sensors and are installed above the water. They send an ultrasound signal and measure the time taken for signals which bounce off the water surface to return to the sensor - Radar Level Sensors: these too are non-contact sensors. They transmit a radio signal in the radar range and offer superior accuracy and noise resistance to the cheaper ultrasonic sensors. |

| GLT744 Radar Level Sensor | The Gamicos GLT744 is a high precision radar level sensor perfect for use in demanding applications, such as FloodPlain Harvesting. The sensor can be supplied with a 1m mounting, which ensures it is sufficiently away from the gantry on which it is installed to minimise any inteference. View GLT744 Brochure. |
