ABSTRACT:
A magnetic sight gage sensor comprises a sensor for determining the liquid level in a process vessel utilizing a magnetic float on the interior of a tube. The tube is connected at different levels to a process vessel and contains a liquid that is maintained at the same level as the liquid inside the process vessel. A magnetostrictive displacement transducer is coupled to the tube or sight glass on the exterior of such glass, so it is out of the process fluid. The transducer provides signals indicating the position of the float relative to a reference position on the transducer. The tube or sight glass is made of a non-magnetic material in order to allow transmission of the magnetic field from the float to the transducer.
