Level monitoring

Make your system reliably measure filling levels of tanks, reservoirs and storage containers.

Sensing solutions for accurate level monitoring

Optimize the measurement quality of your level monitoring systems in tanks, reservoirs etc. with advanced sensing solutions by ams OSRAM. The comprehensive range of products is designed to provide cost effective as well as accurate and reliable level sensing, ensuring optimal performance in various applications. 

Pressure-based level sensing can be realized by optical- and analog front-end components 

For optical level monitoring, a discrete selection of either IR, white or color LEDs in combination with their matching photodetectors are recommended. They could be operated by analog front-end solutions which provide high-performance signal processing across up to 8 separate emitter / detector channels for precise measurements. In case of sufficient compute power within chosen embedded microcontroller, efficient and reliable operation of the illumination sources is guaranteed with discrete LED/VCSEL drivers, offering stable power and control. Alternatively, proximity sensors are being used for level monitoring, ensuring accurate level monitoring in various applications.  

Direct time-of-flight sensors could deliver precise distance measurement and level sensing, enhancing the performance of level monitoring applications in silos up to 5 - 10 meters in height.
