Capacitance type level sensors consist of ground and electrodes and an electronic circuit,enabling electrodes to function as capacitors. Conditions determining the capacitor capacity include shape,dimensions,and layout if conditions other than relative permittivity (*1) of the object measured are the same,the capacitor capacity depends on the relative permittivity of the object messured.Taking the capacity of air measured by the sensor as the reference,we identity differences among measured objects having different relative permittivity.If we take 1 of 2 measured objects having different relative permittivity as a reference,we can discriminate between the 2 objects.The discrimination signal is provided as output. *1.Relative permittivity(specific inductive capacity or dielectric constant) is the ratio of the electrical capacity,the space between capacitor electrodes is filled with an insulator(dielectric), to the electrical capacity when the material is removed to make a vacuum and the value is a constant determined by the type of substance.
