When it comes to measuring the water level, the water level gauge is generally thought of, but this requires manual reading, and it needs to be buried in the water. It is very inconvenient for water level monitoring, so is there any more convenient device to measure the water level? ? Today, I will introduce a displacement sensor that is easy to install and simple to operate. We call it a cable displacement sensor.

How does this pull-wire displacement sensor measure the water level? First, let me introduce its principle: there is a pull wire pulling the reel to rotate, and the reel is connected to the angular displacement sensor, which is driven by the external force of the reel. The signal output by the angular displacement sensor of the rotation is converted into a linear displacement value after conversion. The pull wire is pulled out by external force. The recycling is that the other end of the reel is equipped with a coil spring, which can automatically pull the wire back. This also causes a disadvantage, that is, you cannot let go after pulling it out, otherwise it is easy to automatically recycle It may cause throwing force, damage to external objects, seriously cause disconnection or jamming.
The principle is understood, so let's understand how to measure the water level.

Ordinary displacement sensors are not put in water, that is, the sensor cannot be put in water, how should it be installed? Then put the sensor above the highest water level. Just like the kind of hanging, use the float on the water surface to pull the pull head on the cable displacement sensor. The rise and fall of the water surface will drive the float, so the sensor can test the change of the water level. For the specific installation method, refer to the following Installation diagram.
The special waterproof displacement sensor can directly enter the water. The sensor is installed at the bottom of the water. The slider is connected to the float on the water surface, and it is also pulled out and recovered as the float rises and falls.

The installation method is finished, so how to collect it? You can use computers, industrial computers, PLCs, touch screens, digital meters, and many other collection systems to collect. Which one you want to use depends on how you actually want to collect, then determine what signals you need, and then tell We can.
Well, the method of measuring the water level with the rope displacement encoder is finished. Thank you for reading
