Abstract

The article is about the design and implementation of a laboratory stand for fluxgate liquid level measurement in a tank. It concentrates on the development of the concept and construction of complete measuring device. The new-created mechanical system was analysed to determine the parameters best describing the physical phenomenon occurring, to unambiguously determine the position of the float in relation to the measuring coil, which in turn allows to measure the height of the liquid column in the tank. It also describes the construction of electronic circuits included in the measurement. The analysis of measurement uncertainty of the constructed level meter is also presented.
