This is a photoelectric water liquid level sensor that is operates using optical principles for Arduino. The advantages of this photoelectric water liquid level sensor are good sensitivity and no need for mechanical parts – meaning less calibration! The corrosion resistant probe is easily mounted and can handle high temperature and high pressure. The arduino liquid sensor is equipped with an interface adapter for compatibility with the DFRobot “Gravity” interface.
Note: Avoid placing the sensor near bright lights or in direct sunlight as these can cause interference.
