Abstract

See full text

A device for measuring the fill level of a liquid medium in a container byeasuring the capacitance between electrodes contained in the medium is disclosed. A pair of electrodes in which one of the electrode is divided over its height into two partial surfaces (F1, F2) which are insulated from one another. Each surface forms a partial capacitor (C1, C2) with the other electrode. The divided electrode is characterized in that at least one of the surfaces (F1) or (F2) has a width which increases or decreases over the height of the electrode. By the appropriate combination of the partial capacitances, the level of the medium can be determined as well as a separate determination of the fluid's susceptibility (K).
