ABSTRACT:
A device for measuring the level of liquid fuel in a tank of the type in which one marks the hollow distance between the surface of the liquid and a horizontal reference plane made near an opening that gives access to the tank. The device includes a depth gauge containing a reference base, a mobile rule and means for measuring the relative displacement of the rule relative to the base; means for support against the reference plane of the tank integral with the reference base of the gauge; an optical probe containing static means for detection of liquid at a predetermined level and means for display that can indicate the presence or absence of liquid at this predetermined level, this optical probe being integral with the mobile rule of the gauge.
