FUEL STORAGE TANK CONTAINING SEVERAL CAPACITIVE INTERFACE LEVEL SENSORS Russian patent published in 2023 - IPC B65D90/48 B65D88/02 G01F23/26 

FIELD: measuring technology.

SUBSTANCE: invention is intended for measuring the levels of interfaces between media in various industries. The fuel storage tank contains several capacitive level sensors of the media interface. Moreover, one of the sensors contains a base and a sensitive element of the sensor. The base contains the first part containing a niche with a cover for hermetic placement of an electronic computing unit, and a second part, which has holes for embedded bushings in the center in the area of the first part; on the side surface has holes for fasteners and ventilation holes. Moreover, the sensitive element of the sensor is a housing for electrodes, which is a metal profile formed by connecting several tubes to each other, containing a stiffening element connecting the tubes of the profile. In this case, each tube contains on its side, bordering the measured medium, a slot aligned along the axis with ventilation hole on the side of the collar. EFFECT: technical result is an increase in the reliability and manufacturability of the design and, as a consequence, an increase in the accuracy of measurements of the level of the interface between media.
