Measuring conductive liquids 

Measuring conductive liquids is not as easy as measuring the resistance of ohmic resistors.  
The liquids are not completely ohmic and you have to avoid a material wander.  
The TCL considers these problems and uses a very small ac for resistance measuring. 

Function description  

Level control with one fill factor 

Fill 

Function: 
 
The relay (R) is active as long as the fill 
factor reaches S1.
