» General description
Level monitoring sensor with approvals
These sensors monitor the level of aqueous and oily liquids. They are used in:
» engines
» ships
» utility vehicles
» sets of machines
In engines these sensors monitor the level of:
» cooling water, oil level and fuel container
These sensors are used reliably for automatic filling and refilling of liquids, such as for
supplying engine oil and fuel service tanks.
Wherever pressure switches or temperature probes are today used as level monitoring elements, this
sensor offers the advantage of its indicating a critical condition far sooner:
Temperature probes frequently react too late, because the medium to be monitored is no
longer present. The rise in temperature is not passed on to the pick-up sensor. Pressure
switches do not indicate low oil until there is a total shortage of oil and thus too late to
protect the engine. The level sensor issues a warning when there is still enough medium
present.

BEDIA Level Monitoring Sensors differ from float-type switches through their compact
design and their resistance to vibration:
Since they contain no mechanical moving parts, their functioning cannot be influenced
either by soil particles or other influences. No current is sent into the medium via an elec-
trode with BEDIA sensors, and so insulation of the probe and electrolysis in the system are
not possible.

How the sensor functions
The level sensor functions on the capacitive principle. It detects the change in capacitance
that develops when an electrode surrounded by air is immersed in a liquid medium. This
change in capacitance on the electrode of the sensor excites an oscillator, causing it
to vibrate (at a frequency of approx. 600 kHz). This signal is then processed by digital
evaluation electronics.
