GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The
ALLS6000
is a programmable electronic device used for liquid level control between a
desirable region, in open tanks of height from 10 cm up to 500 cm, with analog sensor and
digital output. Its operation is based on the measurement of the hydrostatic pressure of
liquids. This device requires external air supply in order to function using this method.

The pressure that rises at the
unit’s
outlet (O-S) is proportional to the hydrostatic pressure
of the controlled liquid in the tank. An internal sensor measures this pressure and
transforms it to voltage. Afterwards, several electronic circuits and a microcontroller process
this signal and depending on user adjustments, a digital command is taken when the liquid
in the tank reaches the selected target level (TL). The outcome is the fluctuation of the level
into a desirable working region (between a
Target Level
and the
Differential Level
). (fig. 2)
