The level transmitter market size has grown steadily in recent years. It will grow from $3.37 billion in 2024 to $3.45 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 2.5%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to industrial automation, process industry growth, safety and environmental concerns, stringent regulations, globalization, upgradation of aging infrastructure, water and wastewater management.
The level transmitter market size is expected to see steady growth in the next few years. It will grow to $4.01 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.8%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to rising demand for wireless level transmitters, focus on energy efficiency, evolving oil and gas exploration, smart cities initiatives, market consolidation. Major trends in the forecast period include data analytics and artificial intelligence, internet of things (IoT) integration, non-contact level measurement, remote monitoring and control, integration with SCADA systems, customization and scalability.
The growth of the level transmitter market is expected to be propelled by the increasing adoption of industrial automation. Industrial automation involves the use of control systems, such as computers or robots, and information technologies to handle various processes and machinery in an industry, aiming to achieve superior performance compared to manual control. Level transmitters play a crucial role in enabling automation in industrial settings. According to Eagle Technology Inc., a New Zealand-based company specializing in systems integration and information management, it is projected that the global industrial automation market will reach $297 billion by 2026. Additionally, automation is anticipated to impact job roles, with about 30% of jobs in approximately 60% of all occupations being automated. The adoption of industrial automation is thereby fueling the demand for the level transmitter market.
The level transmitter market is expected to experience growth due to an increase in water shortages. Water shortages occur when the demand for water surpasses the available supply, leading to insufficient access to clean and safe water. Level transmitters assist in monitoring and managing water levels in reservoirs, tanks, and distribution systems, contributing to optimized water usage and efficient water resource management. UNESCO, a France-based specialized agency promoting world peace, reported in March 2023 that globally, 2 billion individuals, or 26% of the global population, lack access to clean drinking water. Additionally, 3.6 billion people, accounting for 46% of the world's population, do not have access to adequately managed sanitation services. The number of urban residents facing water shortages is expected to double by 2050. Consequently, the increase in water shortages is propelling the growth of the level transmitter market.
Innovation emerges as a key trend in the level transmitter market, with major companies striving to develop innovative solutions to enhance their market positions. For instance, Hawk Measurement Systems (HAWK), an Australia-based company specializing in level, positioning, asset monitoring, and fiber optic sensing systems, launched CGR PoE in July 2022. This Guided Wave Radar Level Transmitter features Power over Ethernet communications and is recognized as the industry's first of its kind. The CGR PoE level transmitter connects to the HawkEye365 website, facilitating real-time monitoring of numerous tanks globally. Power over Ethernet connectivity provides secure in-plant and remote monitoring, as well as remote sensor setup, diagnostics, and troubleshooting capabilities.
Major companies in the level transmitter market are also embracing advanced technologies such as Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) technology to introduce sophisticated radar level transmitters with enhanced features to the industrial market. FMCW technology is a radar technique used for measuring the distance and properties of a target. For instance, AMETEK Magnetrol, a US-based manufacturer of instrumentation, launched the Pulsar Model R80 radar level transmitter in August 2022. This transmitter incorporates FMCW technology and operates at an 80 GHz frequency for superior performance, enhanced resolution, and improved accuracy. The Pulsar Model R80 features configuration wizards and proactive diagnostics, simplifying commissioning and troubleshooting. It is minimally affected by turbulence, foam, or excessive vapors, making it suitable for various applications. The transmitter is SIL 2 compliant and holds global hazardous location approvals.
In May 2023, Rochester Sensors, LLC, a U.S.-based designer and manufacturer of liquid-level sensors and gauges, acquired Tekelek Europe Ltd. for an undisclosed sum.

Level transmitters are instruments designed to provide continuous level measurement across the entire range of a system rather than at a single point. They generate an output signal directly correlating to the level within a vessel.
The main types of level transmitters are categorized as contact and non-contact. Contact transmitters come into direct contact with the substance whose level is to be measured. Various technologies are employed, including capacitive, ultrasonic, radar, differential pressure or hydrostatic, magnet cities, radiometric, and others. These transmitters can be positioned by float or submersible methods and find applications in industries such as oil and gas, chemicals, water and wastewater, food and beverages, pharmaceuticals, and others.
