Abstract
A liquid level detection device includes a signal source for generating one or more unique signals on low impedance signal electrodes, a lock-in amplifier, and a reference signal directly connecting the signal source to the lock-in amplifier. The unique signals generated by the signal source are connected to one or more low impedance signal electrodes. The low impedance signal electrodes may be positioned at different levels inside the tank so that at any given level of liquid in the tank, each low impedance individual electrode may or may not be in contact with the liquid in the tank. Alternatively, the low impedance signal electrodes may be attached to the external wall of the tank at different levels. An antenna is connected to an input of the lock-in amplifier. The antenna may be placed inside the tank at the lowest level for the liquid, or the antenna may be attached to the outside wall of the tank near the bottom of the tank.
