ABSTRACT:
A capacitive probe for use in a system for remotely measuring the level of fluids. The probe is continuously charged and discharged. The discharge current from the probe is measured and converted to a corresponding voltage rerepresenting the level of fluild. The voltage is then supplied to an indicating device. One embodiment of the probe includes first and second spaced supports which maintain a plurality of spaced parallel wire electrodes which form two capacitive plates. In a further embodiment of the probe, the wire electrodes are positioned on an integrally formed support.
