OFFICINE OROBICHE S.p.A. INSTRUCTION MANUAL FOR DIAL-TYPE LEVEL INDICATORS SERIES TLQ 1. INSTRUMENT DESCRIPTION Mechanical dial-type level indicators have been designed to measure the level of fluids in small, medium and large vessels. The main assets are: great reliability and sturdiness, quick and easy installation and easy-readable level due to the dial size.
OFFICINE OROBICHE S.p.A. 3. OPERATING PRINCIPLE Operation is based on the buoyancy principle. The float is combined with a very high-precision clockworks gear-operated system, which assure an accurate and repeatable level measurement in the vessel. The float (1), which contains a permanent magnet (2), slides along a rod (3) that holds inside a further magnet (4) connected to a rod (5).
