VISY-Stick The level and environmental sensor based on the magnetostrictive measuring principle VISY-Stick is a level and environ­ mental sensor that has been specially designed to offer highprecision volume and leakage monitoring. VISY-Stick magnetostrictive sensors with screw-in unit (left) and for riser installation (right) lar magnetic field. A torsional wave develops at the point where the two magnetic fields overlap and it propagates towards the probe head. In the probe head, these waves are converted into an electrical signal. The float positions and the temperature are calculated from the different propagation times.
