Abstract
TDR limit level switch determines whether or not the measuring probe is surrounded by the filling material on the basis of the positions relative to the transmission pulse that can be read out from the detected measuring signal and on the basis of the associated amplitudes of the reflections of the transmission pulse on the coupling point and on the end of the measuring probe. In this way, a limit level message can be formed in a simpler, more secure and more reliable manner.
