How does tilt switch work?

Mercury tilt are usually used as car alarms. The mercury tilt switches contain a tube with a small amount of mercury and two electrical contacts. If the car is moved, the mercury flows along the tube completing the circuit and triggering the alarm. I apologize, but I do not know about normal tilt switches.

What fault monitoring device is most like a carpenters level?

I would say a possible similar device would be a mercury level switch. The switch is a sealed glass tube capsule with two or more contacts at one end. Tilt the capsule one way makes the mercury from around the metal contacts closing the switch, tilt the other way and the mercury moves away from the contacts so it opens the switch. It is often used for tilt / level detectors. A typical use would be to place it on a floating ball valve in a tank of liquid or sump, and as the level goes up or down the mercury switch would close and switch on an electrical pump to top the tank up or to drain the sump.
