Operating Principle

Capvel-FUEL measures fuel level using the principle of capacitance. The sense rod and the metallic wall of still tube of the sensor form the two plates of a capacitor. The application material (diesel) forms the dielectric between these plates. The amount of capacitance formed is proportional to the level of diesel between the plates. It utilizes a specially developed capacitance change gauging circuit to measure any change in the level of fuel. Translation of level from capacitance is done according to the calibrating point of the probe. It uses a fast microcontroller to evaluate the level of material in the tank in different formats such as level in milli-meters, percentage and volume of fuel in milli-litres. The sensor also contains built-in algorithms for temperature drift and turbulence compensation.
