Our photodiodes provide significant benefits for liquid-level sensing applications. Optical monitoring of fluid levels is highly desirable in industrial applications where it is crucial to keep the detectors separate from harsh chemicals or fuels. This separation can reduce the risk of corrosion and wear from direct contact with chemicals. Optical sensors can be installed outside the fluid vessel and can be easily replaced in rare cases of failure.
Optical level sensors are also ideal for laboratory and pharmaceutical applications where they eliminate the risk of contamination to highly sensitive instrumentation and analysis equipment.
Optical level sensors can be designed as simple high/low limit indicators or linear arrays of photodiode detectors to accurately measure liquid levels and provide precise electronic readouts.
