- 1 - Abstract: The invention provides length and temperature mea- suring apparatus for tank installations, by means of which the depth of fluid in a tank can be conveniently and accurately measured. The apparatus has a measuring tube located in the tank and a float element surrounding the tube. The float causes a slider within the tube to follow its movements, e.g. by magnetic means. The slider has a sliding contact which engages at least one resist- ance element located longitudinally within the tube. A reference voltage is applied to the resistance element and the partial voltage determined by the position of the sliding contact on the resistance element is measured. From this, the position of the slider (and hence the fluid level) can be determined. If the partial resistance is also measured, this provides an indication of the average temperature of the resistance element below the fluid level, since the temperature can be calculated from the determined position of the slider and information known about the resistance material.
