The invention relates to a microwave-operated level meter with a small blind zone, comprising an antenna for transmitting or for transmitting and receiving microwaves, a microwave generator directly located on said antenna, and a transmitter or transmitter and receiver element pointing into the antenna and directly linked with the microwave generator, said transmitter or said transmitter and receiver element being an extension of the connection.

Level meter

A fill level measuring device working with microwaves, having an antenna for transmitting, or for transmitting and receiving, microwaves. The antenna has a metallic outer conductor and a ceramic inner conductor. The inner conductor is secured in a pressure-tight and gas-sealed manner in the outer conductor. A coating of a fluorothermoplastic is provided on the inner conductor or in the outer conductor. The inner conductor is secured in the outer conductor by means of a warm-pressed fit, and the inner conductor and the outer conductor have conical surfaces of equal shape in the region of the pressed fit.

The invention relates to an apparatus for determining the filling level of a filling material in a container having a signal production unit which produces measurement signals, having at least one antenna which transmits the measurement signals in the direction of the surface of the filling material and which receives the measurement signals reflected on the surface of the filling material, and having a control/evaluation unit which uses the delay time of the measurement signals to determine the filling level of the filling material in the container. The apparatus allows a filling level measurement device, which operates on the delay-time principle, to be mounted on a container in a cost-effective and simple manner. An opening is provided in the upper region of one sidewall of the container, and in that the at least one antenna is positioned in this opening with the antenna being arranged and configured such that the measurement signals are emitted essentially in the direction of the surface of the filling material and such that the measurement signals reflected on the surface of the filling material are received by the at least one antenna.

For monitoring a predetermined level of a liquid in a container an ultrasonic sensor is fitted on the outer surface of the container wall at a measurement point situated at the height of the level to be monitored, said sensor containing an ultrasonic transducer having a diaphragm in contact with the container wall. The components of the ultrasonic sensor including those of the ultrasonic transducer are grouped together in a sensor block which is releasably connected to an adapter secured to the container wall, this adapter being configured so that it can be secured in any way required to containers of differing shape and/or material.

A transducer assembly for measuring pressure or differential pressure includes an oxide ceramic pressure measurement cell removably retained inside a connection housing by an annular set ring on a first side and by a cup packing located on a second side. The pressure measurement cell is held at a fixed distance inside a connection housing from a connector element. The connection housing removably connects to a main housing, allowing for release and replacement of any of the elements within the assembly, thus enabling adaptation of the device to different applications without recalibration.

A sensor for capacitively measuring the level of material in a container where the sensor extends through an opening in the container and is connected to measuring circuitry. The sensor includes an electrically conductive, tubular member aligned with the opening. An elongated electrically conductive member is in electrical contact with the circuitry and projects through the container opening and the tubular member such that a space is established between the elongated conductive member and the tubular member so that they are electrically insulated from one another. The space is sealed to prevent entry of moisture therein.
