PSB Engineering Liquid Level Sensors

Liquid Sensor 00160

Overview

Short Description

Liquid Level Sensors assist people with vision impairment to fill cups and glasses. The unit hangs over the side of a cup or glass with the metal prongs on the inside of the container. A continuous audible tone and/or vibration is activated when the liquid reaches approximately 15 mm from the top of the container. Some models detect two liquid levels in mixed drinks.

Method Of Use

Suitable for making a cup of tea or coffee with milk.
Pour in hot water stopping when a pulsating tone is heard.
Pour in milk stopping when a continuous tone is heard.

Options

A liquid level indicator can be modified to sit on the edge of a basin with extended prongs to signal when the basin starts filling up if taps are left on accidentally. This may assist a person who forgets to turn the taps off as an alternative to installing sensor or spring taps. PSB Engineering does the modification.
