Description

technical field

[0001] The invention relates to a liquid level sensor, in particular to a sensor capable of remotely measuring and monitoring liquid levels at multiple different positions simultaneously. Background technique

[0002] In petrochemical, sugar refining, pharmaceutical, environmental monitoring and other occasions, there is often a need for measurement or monitoring of liquid levels. However, most of the existing measurement and monitoring technologies are sampling and measuring liquid levels at close range or on-site, which is easy to cause personal injury. Safety poses a threat, affects the production process, and the workload is heavy. How to provide a long-distance and simultaneous measurement and monitoring of liquid levels in multiple different positions, and has flexible laying, simple structure, multi-point simultaneous measurement, and long-distance large-scale measurement. The liquid level sensor is very necessary. Contents of the invention
