Abstract
An inductive sensor device for sensing the level of a liquid within a reservoir. The inductive sensor device includes a rotor pivotally connected to an overmold housing. Further, an inductive coupler is mounted to the rotor. Moreover, a float is connected to the rotor to pivot the inductive coupler by the at least one receiving coil to determine the level of liquid within the reservoir.
