General



  • Sensor height (mm) – The height of the entire sensor stack-up. The range – 30.00-422.5, default – 100.00.

  • Sensor width (mm) – The width of the entire sensor stack-up. The range – 20.00-60.00, default – 35.00.

  • Liquid – Select whether the liquid is Ungrounded or Grounded. Default – Ungrounded.

  • Ground offset (mm) – The spacing gap between the outer ground traces and the edge of the sensor area. The range – 0.5-15, default – 0.50.

  • Number of electrodes – The total number of electrodes. The range – 3-32.

  • Electrode width (mm) – The horizontal width of each electrode. The range – 1-59.99.

  • Ground width (mm) – Read-only. The width of the ground traces.

  • Edge shift (mm) – Read-only. The edge shift area on the top and bottom electrodes. This value can be negative.

  • Sensing pad gap (mm) – The space between the electrodes. The range – 0.1-10.

  • Sensor-ground gap (mm) – The horizontal space between the electrodes and neighboring ground traces. The range – 0.1-10.

  • Electrode height (mm) – Read-only. The height of an electrode when measured at a single point on the horizontal axis.

  • Tilt (mm) – Read-only. The distance between the highest and lowest points of the tilted edge of an electrode.

Back layer


  • Trace width (mm) – The width of the trace, which connects some segment of the Liquid Level sensor with the connector. The range – 0.1-10, default – 0.30.

  • Trace gap (mm) – The distance between adjacent trace widths. The range – 0.1-10, default – 0.70.

  • Via holes pad (mm) – The diameter of through-hole pads for each sensor between the front and back layer. The range – 0.1-10, default – 0.70.
