We are after a level sensor that is going to be sitting in a sea water tank for measuring depth variation between 0-30cm, the level sensor reading will be used to control the speed of a pump so the water level in the tank can be kept constant. The sea water tank will be sitting on a ship deck and exposed to sea water splashing. What would be a suitable level sensor?
The LMK458 is a level sensor marine approved for use on a ship. The optional Copper Nickel alloy housing material should be specified for compatibility with sea-water.
