Digital liquid level sensor(LLC200DSH-LLPK1):

• Infrared LED and phototransistor which are optically coupled

by the tip when the sensor is in air
• When the sensing tip is immersed in liquid, the infrared light
from the Optomax digital sensor escapes making the output
change state

Vibration sensor module (sw-420)

• Based on the vibration sensor SW-420 and Comparator
LM393 to detect if there is any vibration beyond the threshold
• The threshold can be adjusted by the on-board potentiometer
• Virtual LED indicates the presence of vibration

Conclusion:

• High acquisition rate

• By using LABVIEW data acquisition ,display , storage
and analysis is achieved
• Real time data acquisition and monitoring ,so measured
data collected from the sensors is displayed on PC and
operator can analyse the real time variation in the
actuating quantity
• More complex application can be developed to execute
measurement and control task
