MCQ on Level Measurement

Que.1 Which of the following is direct method of level measurement?
  1. Sight glass system
  2. air purge
  3. Ultrasonic level detector
  4. Radar level sensor

✔ View Answer

Option 1: Sight glass system

Que.2 In a sight glass level measurement, it is necessary that the liquid in the sight glass must be same as the liquid in the tank.
  1. True
  2. False

✔ View Answer

Option 2: False

Explanation:
It is not necessary that the liquid in the sight glass be same as the liquid in the tank. Any other liquid in the sight glass can also be used.

  2. Cylindrical shaped
  3. Disc shaped floats
  4. All of the above

✔ View Answer

Option 4: All of the above

Que.4 The primary conversion takes place in float type level indicator is
  1. Level to pressure
  2. Voltage to level
  3. Level to displacement
  4. Level to force

✔ View Answer

Option 3: Level to displacement

Que.5 The most common application of float type level measurement is
  1. To monitor the fuel tank level in motor vehicle
  2. Measurement of the flow of petrol in pump
  3. Bernal control of LPG
  4. All of these

✔ View Answer

Option 3: To monitor the fuel tank level in motor vehicle

Que.6 The inductive level transducers are mainly used for measurement of level of liquids which are
  1. non-conductive
  2. conductive
  3. Both (1) and (2)
  4. viscous

✔ View Answer

Option 2: conductive

Que.7 The capacitive method of level measurement is mainly used for measurement of ____ liquids.
  1. non-conductive
  2. conductive
  3. Both (1) and (2)
  4. None of the above

✔ View Answer

Option 3: Both (1) and (2)

Que.8 Capacitive devices are used for the level measurement of
  1. liquid
  2. granular solids
  3. Both (1) and (2)
  4. None of these

✔ View Answer

Option 3: Both (1) and (2)

Que.9 In variable dielectric constant method of liquid measurement, if the liquid is non-conductive. The electrode and the tank wall form the plates of a parallel plate capacitor with ____acting as the dielectric.
  1. plastic insulated electrode
  2. insulated tank wall of metal
  3. the liquid in between them
  4. None of them

✔ View Answer

Option 3: the liquid in between them

Explanation: For variable dielectric constant method
If the liquid is non-conductive, the electrode and the tank wall form the plates of a parallel plate capacitor with the liquid in between them acting as the dielectric.
If the liquid is conductive the rod and the liquid form the plates of the capacitor, and the insulation between them is the dielectric.
Que.10 Contact devices used for the measurement of level are
  1. Less reliable than non-contact devices
  2. More reliable than non-contact devices
  3. same reliable as non-contact devices
  4. None of the above

✔ View Answer

Option 1: Less reliable than non-contact devices

Que.11 Radar sensors can carry out level measurements in:
i. Liquids
ii. Paste-like media
iii. Powders
  1. Only (i) and (ii)
  2. Only (i) and (iii)
  3. All of the above
  4. Only (i) and (iii)

✔ View Answer

Option 3: All of the above

Que.12 Which of the following is not an advantage of Level measurement based on the radar principle?
  1. Highly accurate measured values.
  2. Ideal for dynamic process conditions.
  3. Less installation time.
  4. Measures level of liquids and solids.

✔ View Answer

Option 3: Less installation time.

Explanation:
Disadvantages of Radar level sensor
Radar sensing technology requires some installation time.
The software must be installed so you can calibrate the equipment. Calibration eliminates false echoes from inside the vessel.
