Level sensors are used to detect liquid or powder levels, or interfaces between liquids. These level measurements can be either continuous or point values represented with various output options. Continuous level sensors are devices that measure level within a specified range and give output of a continuous reading of level. Point level sensors devices mark a specific level, generally used as high alarm or switch. Multiple point sensors can be integrated together to give a stepped version of continuous level. These level sensors can be either plain sensor with some sort of electrical output or else can be more sophisticated instruments that have displays and sometimes computer output options. The measuring range is probably the most important specification to examine when choosing a level sensor. Field adjustability is a nice feature to have for tuning the instrument after installation.
