CHALLENGE Flexsys America L.P. was using a level switch to prevent overfilling of their cooling tower basin. They wanted to change to a continuous level indication for trending. They considered using capacitance and non-contacting radar but had reservations about both. They were hesitant to use capacitance because leaves and debris on the surface of the water might cling to the probe and impact the readings. In addition, c
