Abstract
A fluid management system having a central communications station and at least one probe having at least one sensor in which the sensor measures a level of a fluid and detects contaminants. A fluid management system having a central communications station and at least one substantially buoyant probe having at least one sensor for measuring a level of a fluid in which at least a first portion of the probe rests above a surface of the fluid and at least a second portion of the probe rests below the surface of the fluid. A fluid management system having a central communications station and at least one probe having a sensor for detecting contaminants in a fluid. In all three management systems, the probe contains circuitry for transmitting data collected by the sensor to the central communications station.
