This article presents the proof-of-principle of a new sensor capable of detecting the position of the interface between two fluids.

By using fiber-optic sensors to measure wall thickness, gas pipeline operators can track and monitor how quickly pipelines are corroding. Linking the sensors to networked monitoring instrumentation allows them to do this remotely.

High accuracy at a low cost over a wide temperature range makes thermal MEMS accelerometers the hot choice in tilt sensing. Find out whether they're right for your application.

Single-point detection indicates whether contents are present in a container at some particular point.

A multivariable transmitter enables more accurate and sophisticated control of drum fluid level, a critical measurement for boiler control.

The more you know about fluid level sensors—from sight glasses to guided-wave radar to lasers—the happier you will be with the technology you choose for your own application.
