Hydrostatic level measurement is often used for tank level measurement. Hydrostatic level measurement is one type of continuous level measurement.
What Is Hydrostatic Pressure?
Hydrostatic pressure sensors are used to measure the level or fill height of liquids. Hydrostatic pressure measurement is suitable for liquid level measurement due to the static pressure effect of non-flowing fluids. This physical principle describes the effect of the gravity of a stationary (i.e. non-flowing) liquid on the measurement point. This gravity is often described as āhydrostatic pressureā.
Sino-Inst offers a variety of Hydrostatic level senors for industrial level measurement. If you have any questions, please contact our sales engineers.

The above level sensors are Submersible Level Transmitters. According to your measurement needs, we can provide various customizations. For example: measuring range, installation method, output method, explosion-proof, lightning protection, anti-corrosion, etc.
If you cannot use a level probe, we recommend that you use a pressure level sensor.

Hydrostatic level measurement with Pressure Transmitters
In open and closed tanks, there may be special conditions such as high temperature and corrosion. At this time, use a pressure or differential pressure transmitter, with flange, diaphragm, capillary, etc. We can achieve the static pressure measurement of the tank liquid level.
Pros & Cons of Hydrostatic level measurement system
About Hydrostatic level transmitter advantages and disadvantages, we do a simple analysis here. If you want to know more about the advantages and disadvantages of level transmitters. Please refer toĀ Sino-Inst Level Transmitters.
Advantages
- High measurement accuracy;
- The ultra-high range can be customized up to 1000 meters.
- Easy to install;
- The signal can be transmitted remotely;
- The corrosion of various media can be resisted by choosing different materials;
- Suitable for explosion-proof occasions;
- Low cost;
Disadvantages
- The measurement signal needs to be converted;
- When the measuring range is greater than 5 meters, it is impossible to measure the high temperature medium temperature exceeding 125 ā;
- The density of the measuring medium must be uniform.
Hydrostatic level sensor installation guide
- If you choose a submersible pressure transmitter. You must lower the device into the medium by cable. Until you reach the bottom of the tank, reservoir or underground resources, or until you reach the required zero level. Then, run the cable from the oil tank or water tank to the control system. Connect the level probe to the PLC accordingly.
- If you have turbulent media, you should use an extra tank weight to stabilize the level probe in the media. To obtain a stable pressure reading. To prevent the cable from any mechanical damage. You can use the cable clamp to fix the cable on the top of the water tank. Or when connecting the cable to the control system.
- If you choose a standard pressure transmitter. Simply screw the transmitter into the threaded hole on the bottom or side of the tank. Then, connect the transmitter to the PLC with the appropriate cable connector. Or if cable connection is selected, connect the transmitter directly to the control system.
Hydrostatic level sensor can also be used with paperless recorder.
Capacitive vs Hydrostatic level sensor
Capacitive liquid level transmitter is the core sensor working principle of a transmitter. Refers to an instrument that measures differential pressure by detecting changes in capacitance on both sides of the sensing diaphragm. Theoretically, it can measure the pressure and differential pressure in any form, including liquid level. The reason why it is called a liquid level transmitter is only because its installation method is specially designed for liquid level measurement. The essence of the capacitive liquid level transmitter is a differential pressure transmitter.
Hydrostatic level sensor refers to a method of measuring liquid level using the principle of Hydrostatic pressure. Liquid level height Ć medium weight = pressure difference between liquid level and upside. This method of measurement requires the use of a differential pressure transmitter. If this differential pressure transmitter is designed to be more suitable for liquid level measurement, it is called a liquid level transmitter.
