Flow

The ~~spice~~ liquid must flow!

Electronics and water don't usually mix - which is why liquid level sensing projects can be a little challenging. But we have a number of solutions that don't require the Gom Jabbar test. Check out our options of liquid solenoid valves, which are great for robotic gardening, aquarium, pool projects, or maybe terra-forming planets (still in R&D). Or if you need to measure liquid levels, we have eTapes of varying lengths, including ones with protective plastic casing.

Plastic Solenoid Valve with two threaded inlets and solenoid with two contacts

Plastic Water Solenoid Valve - 12V - 1/2" Nominal

Product ID: 997

The eTape Liquid Level Sensor is a solid-state sensor with a resistive output that varies with the level of the fluid. It does away with clunky mechanical floats, and easily interfaces with electronic control systems. The eTape sensor's envelope is compressed by the hydrostatic pressure of the fluid in which it is immersed. This results in a change in resistance...
