Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of liquid level gauge structure technology, and in particular to a liquid level gauge capable of data self-testing. Background Technology

[0002] A level gauge is a device used to measure liquid level. A radar level gauge is a type of level gauge. It is a measuring instrument based on the time-of-flight principle. Radar waves travel at the speed of light, and the travel time can be converted into a level signal by electronic components. The probe emits high-frequency pulses that propagate in space at the speed of light. When the pulses encounter the material surface, they are reflected back and received by the receiver inside the instrument, which converts the distance signal into a level signal.

[0003] Existing level gauges cannot perform data self-checks during use, which prevents timely detection of malfunctions and affects their usability. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a level gauge that can perform data self-checks when a malfunction occurs during operation, thus not affecting the working effect of the level gauge.
