Technology Advancements to Boost Latin American Level Sensor Market

Oct. 24, 2014

The Latin American Level Sensor Market was valued at $252.7 million in 2013, and is expected to reach $352.6 million by 2018, according to an updated report by Micromarket Monitor.

The Latin American Level Sensor Market was valued at $252.7 million in 2013, and is expected to reach $352.6 million by 2018, at a CAGR of 6.9 percent from 2013 to 2018, according to an updated report by Micromarket Monitor.

According the report, Latin America is a potential market for level sensors in the coming years and the expansion of the market in this region can be attributed to the technological advancements in level sensing technologies.

Level measurement is a very basic process used across several industrial segments; technological developments in the past decade have led to a considerable reduction in size of level sensors, which has played a major role in the growth of the level sensor market. Reduction in size and the penetration of micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) technology into the level sensor industry has created a wide horizon of applications for level sensors in the field of automotive, aerospace & defense, healthcare, industrial chemicals, petrochemicals, water & wastewater, construction & building, energy & clean-tech, mining, paper, pulp & forestry, plastics, sludge & slurry, and food and beverages applications.
