    Abstract: The coverings have differing thicknesses (di, dj). Measurements of capacity between electrodes (4, 5, 6, 13) are used to calculate the effective thickness (ds/ epsilon s) of an insulating film of contamination (14). An Independent claim is included for a capacitative level sensor. Preferred Features: The quotient of double layer capacities CDSj and CDSi for the ith and jth electrodes is obtained from a cited equation. The effective thickness is obtained from a further equation, relating dielectric constant of the coverings, their thicknesses, and capacitor areas. The sensor has a covering thickness of ca. 1 mm, with a dielectric constant below 5. The contaminant film electrical characteristics are specified in terms of a critical frequency related to measurement. Measurement frequency is specified as a function of dielectric relaxation frequency at the boundary layer. Though dielectric thickness varies and the electrodes are segmented, the probe external configuration, is a long, smooth, cylindrical rod.
