Remote Fluid Properties Detection and Reporting

Abstract

A remote detection and reporting of fluid properties device. A float has a sensor array for detecting at least one property of a fluid and transmitting the fluid properties. The float has at least one side arm and at least one lower arm for detection of fluid properties, where the lower arm has a ballast and a gas bladder for orienting and stabilizing the float. The float, the side arms, and the lower arm are made of a thermally conductive plastic and coated with a thermochromic compound optimized for visually reporting the temperature of a fluid via change in color. In a different embodiment of the float has an electronic sensor array detects multiple properties of a fluid. The float has an electronic transmitter, a battery, and a wire harness, and floats in a fluid. The device transmits the fluid properties to a remote receiver.
