In order to avoid that during the process of heat generation by the heat conducting disc 33, the gas inside the liquid level tube 1 generates water mist due to the temperature difference with the external gas, thereby increasing the pressure inside the liquid level tube 1, the pressure data detected by the pressure sensor 42 is uploaded to the editable logic controller. When the pressure reaches the threshold value, the editable logic controller controls the solenoid valve 41 to open, so that the pressure is discharged from the solenoid valve 41 to the liquid level tube 1. After the pressure returns to normal, the solenoid valve 41 is closed to keep the inside of the liquid level tube 1 closed.
