Liquid level 60 Location of sensor Magnetic level switches: These are used in open and sealed tanks. Mounting: The liquid-level tube and the location of the level switch are determined by the manufac - turer. Level switches are installed at the same height as the required liquid level. Hydrostatic level sensing: The measurement is based on the maximum liquid level and the location of the sensor.
Principles of operation General All measuring systems transmit physical variables such as temperature, humidity, pressure etc. with a particular response characteristic. The “response characteristic” (e.g. Tt = dead time / T = time constant or “lag”) refers to the reactions of the measuring systems. Transfer with dead time, Tt, e.g. mixed-water temperature As the valve is adjusted by a given stroke, the temperature of the mixed water in the valve changes without any time delay. However, the valve and the temperature sensor are some distance apart. This is the distance the mixed water has to travel before the sensor can detect the change. This “transportation time” is referred to as “dead time”. Tt = Dead time Principles of operation 61
