FUNCTION OF LEVEL

TRANSMITTER

DP Level Transmitter
Used as it is installed at
the bottom of the tank
whose level is to be
detected.
The liquid inside the
tank creates pressure
which is comparatively
higher than the
reference atmospheric
pressure.
A metallic measuring
cell is used as sensor
element.
