MAGNETIC LEVEL GAUGES MAGNETIC LEVEL GAUGE Operating principle On the dry side of the chamber is the Indicator, a display of magnetic wafers (red/white). As the float moves up or down the magnetic field of the permanent magnet pulls the wafers through a rotation of 180° thus changing their colour. As the float rises the flaps are turned from white to red, as the float falls, they are changed back to white again. The level is represented at any given wafer without any external power supply. The instrument consists of 3 main parts The Float The Chamber The Indicator
