Device for measuring a liquid level in a tank and associated method of use

Abstract

A measuring device (1) for measuring a liquid level (K) in a tank (R), the measuring device (1) comprising a guide conduit (2); a plurality of magnetic switches (4A-4D) each configured to move between an open state (E1) and a closed state (E0); a float (3) mounted for translational movement within the guide conduit (2), the float (3) comprising a main body (6) and at least one magnetic element (5), configured to change the state of a magnetic switch (4A-4D) so as to determine the liquid level (K), the main body (6) extending longitudinally along a body axis (X6) oriented from bottom to top between a lower end and an upper end, the main body (6) having a body height defined along the body axis (X6) from the lower end, the magnetic element (5) being positioned in an upper half of the main body (6).
