2.1 Functional description

Level sensors work on the float principle with magnetic transmission.
A permanent magnet built into the float  triggers, with its magnetic
field, the resistance measuring chain built into the guide tube . The
entire assembly corresponds to a 3-wire potentiometer circuit. The float
 changes its height with the level of the medium it is monitoring. The
measured resistance signal is proportional to the level. The measure-
ment voltage is very finely stepped due to the contact separation of the
resistance measuring chain and is thus virtually continuous.
