2. Description of the Device
The Fisher DLC3100 SIS is a microprocessor-based digital level controller that measures and transmits change in liquid
level, or level of an interface between two liquids. Changes in the buoyancy of a displacer suspended in a vessel vary
the load on a torque tube assembly (249 sensors). The displacer with torque tube assembly and lever assembly
constitute the primary mechanical sensors. The angular rotational deflection of the torque tube is measured by the
instrument transducer, which consists of a magnet system moving over a Hall Effect sensor. In level measurement
mode, it is the proportion of displacer covered by liquid that produces the measured buoyancy.
