A method for filling
level measurement is disclosed, using which, in a container (1), in which a first and / or a second filling product (3, 5) can be located, for each filling product (3, 5) contained in the container (1), a rest location can be determined, which corresponds to the location which the filling product surface of the particular filling product (3, 5) assumes because of the quantity of the first filling product (3) which is contained in the container (1) and the quantity of the second filling product (5) which is contained in the container (1), if the total quantity of each filling product (3, 5) in the container (1) forms a single layer containing only this filling product (3, 5), wherein said first filling product (3) has a lower
specific weight than said second filling product (5), and said two filling products (3, 5) have different
dielectric constants (e), wherein an
electromagnetic signal (S) is transmitted into said container (1), a reflection occurs on at least one media boundary generated by said filling products (3, 5) contained in said container (1), wherein a component (Rx, Ry) of said
signal (S) is reflected, and for each reflected component (Rx, Ry), a run time (Tx, Ty), which is a function of the location of the media boundary triggering the reflection, is measured, which said component (Rx, Ry) of the
signal (S) requires for the
route to this media boundary and back, a
capacitance (C), which is a function of the quantities of the filling products (3, 5) located in the container (1), is measured between a capacitive probe (13) and a
reference electrode (15), and the rest location of said filling product surface is determined for each filling product (3, 5), which is, contained in the container (1), on the basis of the measured
capacitance (C) and the measured runtimes (Tx, Ty).
