If there is no temperature gradient across the liquid surface, can the sensor still work? What auxiliary heating methods are available?
The OFSCN® Fiber Bragg Grating Liquid Level Sensor relies on a significant temperature difference between the liquid below the surface and the gas above the surface to function. Therefore, if there is no temperature gradient across the liquid surface, the sensor cannot effectively determine the liquid level.
The working principle of this sensor is based on utilizing multiple Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) temperature sensors as a reference scale. These sensors detect the distinct temperature profiles to locate the liquid surface. Without a clear temperature differential, this positioning method is not applicable.
Below are images illustrating the sensor:
