The portable Sensor Service Unit is light and compact and useable with any Gill liquid level sensor. The minimum and maximum liquid level is set using the simple user interface provided via the graphical LCD display and push buttons. The sensor will then be calibrated to provide a highly accurate linear analogue output between these points. The liquid level voltage can also be displayed in real time enabling the user to easily check the settings are correct.

Originally designed to monitor the height and movement of a series of aero struts on an F1 car, the Rod Position Sensor is ideal for applications where a very small change in position needs to be monitored. The sensor is designed with a very low height profile and no internal moving parts, detecting up to 8mm of linear movement, with no physical contact between the sensor and the sensed part.
