Gravity: Submersible Liquid Level Tank Pressure Sensor

Any scuba diver is aware of the fascinating weight of water, but curious Makers may have greater interest in measuring pressure under water or oil. Using the measurement of pressure, a clever microprocessor like Arduino can accurately calculate the depth of a liquid. This Gravity Submersible Pressure Sensor is designed for diving far into liquids with its 5m long cable.

A Gravity Analog Current to Voltage Converter is specially included with the Gravity Submersible Pressure Sensor for Makers to easily connect it to an Arduino project and play with its awesome features. A stainless-steel housing around the sensor module protects the advanced sensing chip inside. The pressure sensor receives measurement data at different depths within a liquid and outputs them in current signals. The Gravity Submersible Pressure Sensor is ready to dive into water, oil or even mash with large viscosity.

The Gravity Submersible Pressure Sensor has great use in both industrial and hobbyist applications that benefit from a 5m long sensor. You can discover the depth of rivers, reservoirs, city water supplies, groundwater in urban areas, and basins. With a sensor on hand, an industry worker can make necessary measurements for waterworks, refineries, sewage work and other mechanics involving volumes of liquid. The Gravity Submersible Pressure Sensor is a great choice for practical and fun waterproof electronics projects.
