Abstract
An example fire suppression system includes a cylinder having a wall defining an inner chamber, and a processor operable to determine an amount of a suppressant in the inner chamber based on a capacitance between a first electrode and a second electrode that are both in contact with the suppressant. An example method for determining an amount of suppressant in a cylinder includes measuring a capacitance between a first electrode and a second electrode that are both in contact with a suppressant within a cylinder, and a determining an amount of suppressant within the cylinder based on the capacitance.
