DEVICE TO MEASURE WATER LEVEL Russian patent published in 2013 - IPC G01F23/18 

FIELD: measurement equipment.

SUBSTANCE: device comprises a generator of a high-frequency signal, a resistor, a level sensor, at least one pair - the first and second electrodes of a conducting material, installed at the specified distance d from each other in a holder from a dielectric material, a diode, a low pass filter (LPF), a unit of potential shift and a unit of output signal generation. At the same time the high-frequency signal generator is connected with the serially connected resistor, semiconductor diode, LPF, the unit of potential shift and the unit of output signal generation. The output from the upper end of the first electrode is connected to the common output of the resistor and the semiconductor diode, the output from the upper end of the second electrode - to an earth bus, and lower ends of both electrodes are submerged below the level of the measured water surface.

EFFECT: provision of higher resolving capacity by time, frequency and amplitude of measured physical values, higher functional flexibility, simplicity of realisation, increased reliability.
