1. Define level.
The level of measurement refers to the relationship among the values that
are assigned to the attributes for a variable. It can also be define as the
measurement of the position of an interface between two media. These media
are typically gas and liquid, but they also could be two liquids.
a) Nominal
b) Ratio
a) Ordinal
b) Interval
a. visual indicators
The operation of the ball float is simple. The ball floats on top of
the liquid in the tank. If the liquid level changes, the float will follow and
change the position of the Figure 1
pointer attached to the
rotating shaft. The travel of the ball float is limited by its design to be
within ±30 degrees from the horizontal plane which results in optimum
response and performance. The actual level range is determined by the
length of the connecting arm. The stuffing box is incorporated to form a
water-tight seal around the shaft to prevent leakage from the vessel.
