Abstract

Apparatus has a float (A) in two parts (1, 2) moving vertically and which varies, by its displacements, a rheostat (4). The float moves in conjunction with a coil resistance (4) on a support (5) parallel to the direction of float displacement. The apparatus has a vessel to which the liquid has acess and the vessel has at its centre a guide rod (3) of the float and, laterally from the rod, a rheostat coil (4) mounted on a suitable support (5). The contact between the guide shaft and the rheostat coil is a U shape whose arms enclose the coil and whose base elastically engages the guide shaft.
