Optical liquid level sensor is a contact-type sensor used for point
level sensing of organic, corrosive and aqueous liquids that exhibits
upper free surfaces. Optical liquid level sensor works on principle of
optical reflection and detects change in transmission of light emitted
from light emitting diode (LED) mounted on infrared LED and infrared
photo detector. Based on the presence or absence of liquid, change in
transmission is sensed. Optical liquid level sensors are used to detect
level of liquid-liquid interfaces and liquids with suspended solids.
Optical liquid level sensors are comparatively Inexpensive as compared
to other liquid sensing technologies. Optical sensors can work only
with in clean translucent to transparent liquids. Optical liquid level
sensors finds applications in Medical Laboratory, petrochemicals,
Hydraulic Reservoirs, beverage systems etc. Depending upon applications,
optical liquid level sensors with different specifications in terms of
operating temperature range, supply voltage range, current consumption,
data rates etc. are used.

& Africa. The global Optical Liquid level Sensor market is expected
to reflect a single digit CAGR over the forecast period. The market for
optical liquid level sensors is quite niche and expected to gain more
market due to its increasing applications for industrial use. At
present, share contribution of North America is the highest in global
Optical Liquid level Sensor market. Asia-Pacific region is expected to
show dramatic adoption of Optical Liquid level Sensor for various
applications in upcoming decade. Market in Latin America and Middle East
& Africa are expected to show comparatively slow penetration.
Global Optical Liquid level Sensor market: Drivers
The prominent factors which drives the global optical liquid level
sensor market are technological advancements in optical liquid level
sensors and increasing implantation of optical liquid sensors in
industrial applications. Optical liquid level sensors offers numerous
advantages as compared to other liquid level sensors. Optical liquid
level sensors are compact and easy to maintain. They are generally
unaffected by vapours, even at High Concentrations and have no moving
parts.
On other hand, optical liquid levels sensors offers fixed level
detection and its limited ON/OFF functionalities, limits its use in
protecting from dry runs and overflows.
Tremendous opportunities lies in developing end user specific optical
liquid level sensor component, modules and system solutions.
