The reflected ultrasonic signal is detected by the ultrasonic level meter body 3 and converted into an electrical signal, and then processed by the dedicated software in the display mechanism 1. The time difference between the emission of the ultrasonic wave and the echo is analyzed. Combined with the propagation speed of the ultrasonic wave, the propagation distance of the ultrasonic wave can be calculated, and then the liquid level situation can be reflected. The collected liquid level data is processed and calibrated according to the size of the components, converted into the current actual oil volume, and displayed in real time.
