Abstract
A capacitive level-sensor device, for detecting the level of at least one medium contained in a container comprises: The control circuit is prearranged for carrying out a sequential sampling of the inputs of the plurality of first inputs and for comparing a value representing the capacitance associated to each electrode with at least one corresponding reference threshold. The detection part further comprises at least one temperature sensor, connected to at least one respective second input of the control circuit. The control circuit is moreover prearranged for carrying out a compensation of at least one of the following: according to information representing at least one temperature value acquired on the at least one second input.
