Patent number: 8397525Abstract: The invention relates to a device for controlling a condensate lift pump, comprising a means for detecting at least two condensate levels in a container, and a means for activating and for stopping the pump according to the levels, in which the detection means comprises a capacitive detector comprising at least three electrodes: a ground electrode; a first level detection electrode; and a second level detection electrode, and a processing means comprising a means for measuring the capacitance between the electrodes. According to the invention, the lengths of the first level detection electrode and second level detection electrode are defined so as to come into contact with the condensates, when the condensates respectively reach the first level and the second level in the container; these electrodes are produced on distinct supports not having a submergible physical continuity between them.Type: GrantFiled: September 15, 2009Date of Patent: March 19, 2013Assignee: Sauermann IndustrieInventors: Antoine Chauvin, Fabrice Leze, Michel Baillon

Patent number: 5562003Abstract: An apparatus is provided for detecting the level of a liquid in a tank. The apparatus is designed to be connected to a controller that controls a pump so as to switch the pump on when the liquid level reaches a maximum authorized level and to stop operation of the pump when the level of the liquid has gone back down to a minimum level. The apparatus includes a float that is lifted by the liquid and that is guided vertically. The apparatus also includes a magnet that is carried by the float, and at least two switches each having contacts sealed in a capsule. Each switch is fixed in a horizontal fashion to a plate so as to correspond to a predetermined liquid level, and each switch turns on an electrical circuit connected to the controller when the switch is in the magnetic field of the magnet. The plate is disposed in a vertical plane that is parallel to and in close proximity to the displacement of the float.Type: GrantFiled: February 22, 1995Date of Patent: October 8, 1996Assignee: Sauermann IndustrieInventor: Patrick Lefebvre
