ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a device for determining and/or monitoring a predetermined level. The multipurpose inventive device comprises the following: a mechanical oscillating structure which is placed at the same height as the predetermined level, a pot-shaped housing which is sealed on one end by a membrane (3), piezo-electric elements (15,17) which are arranged in a pile (13) and which, when in operation, are used to place the oscillating structure in an oscillating state, in addition to detecting oscillations according to a momentary level and to make said oscillations accessible for further processing and/or evaluation, being confined between a first and second die (19,21) whose respective ends are adjacent to the pile (13), wherein the pile (13) is clamped along the longitudinal axis of the housing (1) between a pressure screw (24) which is screwed into the housing (1) and the membrane (3).
