What to Look for in a Level Gage


While level gages function the same way, there are some features in some models and brands that you may want to experience. When choosing the right level gage for your liquid measuring needs, here are interesting features to look for.



1. Programmable – Choose a level gage that can be programmed and will function automatically, even without watching it time after time. Modern models have keys that allow programming and small screen that show stats and results.

2. Controller – Choose one with a controller that lets you adjust or modify the settings of the device easily and comfortably. Some models have controller attached to the device, while others have separate controllers.

3. Built-In Alarm Indicator – A gage with a built-in audible or alarm indicator helps you determine whether the liquid has already reached a certain level or not. This is ideal for users who couldn’t monitor the measurement all the time or for blind and disabled individuals.

4. Rated for Sanitary Applications – Make sure that your device is rated for sanitary applications such as those found in the pharmaceutical and food industries. This will guarantee that your gage is clean and safe to use, even for measuring liquid food items.

5. Enables Slurries and Suspended Solids – If you plan to measure slurries or suspended solids. There are gage models that allow this. 

6. Recorder and Totalizer Functions – Choose a level gage with a recording and totalizing features. These serve as data loggers which track, record, totalize, and integrate measured values.

Depending on the type, model, and brand of level gage you choose, you will get unique features that may or may not be present in others. Determine what you need and how you will use your liquid level gage to know which features are necessary.
