FUEL STORAGE TANK CONTAINING ONE CAPACITIVE INTERFACE LEVEL SENSOR Russian patent published in 2022 - IPC B65D90/48 G01F23/26 B65D88/02 

FIELD: measuring technology.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to measuring technology, is intended for measuring the levels of the interface between media. The fuel storage tank contains one capacitive interface level sensor; the sensor contains a sensitive element, which is a housing for electrodes in the form of a metal profile, formed by connecting several tubes to each other with ventilation holes; contains on its side adjacent to the measured medium, a slot aligned along the axis with the corresponding ventilation hole on the side surface of the said collar part; electrodes in the form metal tubes with the same linear capacity, differing in length; the sensitive element of the sensor is configured to be connected to the base of the capacitive level sensor of the interface medium through the holes for fasteners in the sensor housing; the main electrode and each compensation electrode are configured to be connected to the electronic computing unit of the sensor by means of metal rods connected to the holes for embedded bushings in the sensor housing.

EFFECT: technical result is the elimination of the shortcomings of the prototype, the increase in the reliability and manufacturability of the design, the increase in the accuracy of measurements of the level of the interface between the media.
