A level sensing apparatus for attachment to a sounding tube in order to measure levels of contents in a tank and for determining the purity of contents in a tank. This level sensing apparatus includes a housing for enclosing the various components of the level sensing apparatus. The level sensing apparatus of the present invention also includes a sounding tube adapter operatively connected to the housing and is further adapted for attachment to a sounding tube. Additionally, the level sensing apparatus includes a lock operatively connected to the sounding tube adapter and capable of receiving the housing. Finally, the level sensing apparatus includes a swivel connector operatively connected to the housing, whereby the housing is capable of moving cooperatively with the swivel connector. In use, the level sensing apparatus of the present invention allows for pulse radar measurement of liquid levels in the tank or may be moved relative to the sounding tube to allow for manual sampling to test the purity of tank contents.
