A monitoring system for monitoring a water level in a plumbing element. The monitoring system has a sensor unit, which includes at least one sensor for detecting a measured value and with the aid of which a water level in a receiving space of the plumbing element may be ascertained. A plumbing element is also provided that comprises a receiving space for accommodating water and at least one water outlet for emptying the water from the receiving space.

A liquid level monitoring system for monitoring the level of liquid in a tiltable tank, which may tilt or rotate in a tilt or rotation plane about a tilt axis. The system comprises a pair of pressure sensors comprising a first pressure sensor for sensing the pressure of the liquid in the tank at a first position located towards the bottom of a tank and a second pressure sensor for sensing the pressure of the liquid in the tank at a second position located a known pre-defined distance above the first sensing wherein the two sensing positions are located on a sensing line substantially orthogonal to and passing through a liquid surface dividing line, said liquid surface dividing line being the line along and extending past the surface of liquid in the tank whose position relative to the tank walls remains the same as the tank tilts about the tilt axis.

Systems and methods of diagnosing performance of a level sensor of a fluid test chamber, including a data acquisition and processing unit configured to receive output signals of one or more level sensors that are installed to a fluid chamber, the data acquisition and processing unit being configured to connect to the one or more level sensors to record and process the output signals to test operation of the one or more level sensors.

Heat resistant sensors equipped with any of a variety of transducers for measuring any of a variety of properties of fluids are constructed with components comprising materials that can withstand very high temperatures. Some embodiments of the sensors include a first pressure sensitive element and a second pressure sensitive element with respective first and second membranes positioned in juxtaposed relation to each other to form a capacitor. Some embodiments include a pusher that extends from the membrane toward a first electrode. Some embodiments have a housing comprising a ceramic substrate with a sensor element mounted on an inside surface of the substrate. Other embodiments have direction sensing capabilities including a heater positioned in a core material and at least three temperature sensors located at or near the peripheral surface of the core material and spaced apart angularly in relation to each other.

An assembly includes at least one container, an injection medium supply, at least one flow line extending from the injection medium supply to an interior portion of the at least one container; and a pressure transducer coupled to each of the at least one flow line.

According to one aspect, a lubricant level sensing system for an actuator is provided. The lubricant level sensing system includes a pressure port in an outer housing of the actuator, a pressure sensor, and a pathway from the pressure port to the pressure sensor. The pathway establishes fluid communication between the pressure sensor and a free volume of an internal cavity of the outer housing relative to a lubricant level in the internal cavity such that the pressure sensor detects a pressure of the free volume used to derive the lubricant level.

A chemical tank level system for a wellbore chemical injection tank is provided. The system includes a pressure sensor is located downstream of the chemical injection tank where the fluidic pressure is essentially the same as the fluidic pressure at the base of the chemical tank. The pressure sensor sends a signal indicative of the fluidic pressure to a tank level sensor module. The tank level sensor module receives the signal from the pressure sensor. A processor takes a series of pressure sensor signals over a sample window and calculates an average of the signals over a defined time window.
