level/pressure management system
I'm translating information about a level detection and management system for use in a huge storage tank for solid material. Any thoughts on how to render this into English? My usual reference materials are coming up empty.
Thanks in advance.

Note from asker:
| I had thought of "displacement controller," but I get the impression that this implies that displacement is what is being controlled. I *think* the Spanish term implies that displacement is used as a means of controlling something else (e.g., perhaps when the tank is almost full, the product level pushes against a sensor that sounds an alarm when it is moved). |

Displacement-controlled actuator
Not sure whether actuator would be the best term - depends on what is being controlled!
