Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of sensors, in particular to a circuit protection layer connection structure of an immersion type liquid level transmitter. Background Art

[0002] The liquid level transmitter is an extension and development of the pressure transmitter technology. It is based on the principle that the pressures generated by liquids of different specific gravities at different heights are in a linear relationship. It can accurately measure and transmit the volume, liquid height and weight of water, oil and paste.

[0003] The immersion level transmitter is the most widely used type of level transmitter at present. When in use, it is immersed in the liquid to be measured, and the pressure sensor is used as the measuring element. After the amplification and processing circuit, the gauge pressure or absolute pressure of the measured medium is converted into a standard circuit or current signal. The immersion level transmitter needs a line to connect when in use, and generally uses a gas-conducting cable to transmit the signal. In actual use, the composition of the measured medium varies. Some will cause damage to the line during the liquid level change process, affecting the service life of the overall equipment. There are now related solutions to set up protective layer structures such as bellows on the outside of the line, but the key point that is more difficult to solve is the connection between the protective layer and the line and the sensor. It is necessary to protect the line, ensure that the protective layer fixes the line and the sensor, and take into account a certain degree of sealing. This is a difficult problem encountered in the current protective layer solution. Summary of the invention
