20230298454 · 2023-09-21 ·

A device for monitoring the level or amount of a material within a container is provided. The device includes a detection mechanism that can be a direct detection mechanism or an indirect detection mechanism. When the detection mechanism senses an upper level of the substance in the container that is below a predetermined lower limit for the substance, the mechanism operates an alarm mechanism to emit an alarm to alert an individual to the low level of the substance within the container. The alarm can wirelessly communicate a salt level state to a wireless network or a device on a wireless network that can transmit the status through the Internet to any remote location. In one aspect, the alarm can be sent on a mesh network with a device that can transmit the status and other conditions through the Internet and to an application executing on a mobile device.

Fuel level display circuit for dual tank configuration

A fuel level circuit for dual tank configuration includes fuel level sensors in each of two tanks and a fuel level display that can display the fuel level in one tank. The tank to be displayed on the fuel level display is selected by a flow diverting valve that selects the tank from which fuel will be delivered to a prime mover. A magnetic element moves with the flow diverting valve to actuate a magnetic switch to open or close a circuit element. A fuel selection relay places the fuel level display in communication with the fuel level sensor of the selected fuel tank in response to the magnetic switch opening and closing the circuit element.

Filling Level Indicator
20210247226 · 2021-08-12 ·

A filling level indicator for determining a filling level in a tank, having a resistor network, a contact element, and a magnetic element. The contact element is spaced apart from the resistor network, and the magnetic element is movable relative to the resistor network and the contact element. The contact element has a contact region deflectable by the magnetic element. An electrically conductive connection between the contact region and the resistor network can be established by the deflection of the contact region. A spacer element is disposed between the contact element and the resistor network. A predefinable spacing is generated by the spacer element, which is formed from a fuel-resistant material.
