Abstract
A sensor module comprises a housing and a liquid level sensing module. The housing includes a first passage adapted to permit liquid to flow into an interior of the housing. The first passage defines an air chamber and an air passage in communication with the air chamber. The liquid level sensing module is arranged in the interior of the housing, and includes at least a first part positioned within the air passage. The liquid level sensing module is adapted to sense a characteristic indicative of a liquid level when the liquid flows into the first passage and compresses air in the air passage.
