FILLING LEVEL MEASUREMENT SYSTEM Russian patent published in 2020 - IPC G01F23/26 

FIELD: measurement; aviation.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to means of measurement and systems for controlling filling of aircraft with fuel components. Essence: filling level measurement system consists of on-board and ground parts and comprises sensors, outputs of which are connected to inputs of electronic level measurement units. On-board part comprises intra-tank capacitive fuel level sensors, on-board cable network connecting outputs of sensors and other elements with output connector of system. Ground part comprises operator's panel, which includes communication line for transfer of information on fuel level to processing unit on operator's panel. Level measurement units are placed outside the aircraft and included into the microprocessor device for processing and transmitting data connected to the aircraft output connector at the moment of filling. Microprocessor device consists of a controller which converts the sensor signals into a digital code. Communication line is based on radio modules, the input of which is connected to the output of the processing device, and the output is connected to the input of the processing unit on the operator panel.

EFFECT: technical result is expansion of functional capabilities.
