Patent ID: 6930609

Claim:
A device for transmitting data relative to the fill level limit of a filler material in a container, between a sensor, in particular a capacitive fill-level sensor, or a pressure sensor, and an evaluating unit, wherein the evaluating unit and the sensor are spatially separated from each other, comprising: a first processor unit connected to the sensor; a second processor unit connected to the evaluating unit; and connecting lines are provided, which exchange data bidirectionally over said first processor unit and said second processor unit, wherein: the data exchange between said first processor unit and said second processor unit is performed by a clock pulse flank-controlled point-to-point transmission; the evaluating unit and said first processor unit are mounted to the container and extend outside of the container; the sensor and said second processor unit are mounted to extend inside the container; and the sensor and evaluating unit are connected to each other by said connecting lines.
