Abstract

La presente invencion se refiere a un aparato para inspeccionar y controlar el nivel de hielo en un deposito para el almacenamiento de hielo, el cual incluye un emisor montado dentro del deposito para el almacenamiento de hielo, y un detector montado en posicion directamente opuesta al emisor. Un circuito de impulsos acciona o hace funcionar el emisor de forma tal que éste produce un tren de impulsos que dispara al detector. Un circuito del receptor emite una señal sensible a la deteccion del tren de impulsos por parte del detector. Un controlador activa un aparato para la fabricacion de hielo, sensible a la salida del circuito del receptor.
