Product Description
The electronics of the VLV excite the piezo-electric crystals inside the tuning fork, making the fork tines vibrate at their natural resonance frequency in free air. When the fork tips are immersed in a liquid, the vibration frequency of the fork drops because of the density of the liquid. This change in frequency is detected by the electronic circuit, and so the presence of liquid is detected. Typical installation; Applications: Vibrating level switches are used to detect the minimum or maximum levels of powders, granules and some liquids. They are widely preferred especially in silos, bunkers, tanks and storage areas in the cement, food, chemical, plastic, pharmaceutical and agricultural sectors. When material touches the fork, the vibration stops and the level information is given, providing a reliable, maintenance-free solution. Not being affected by factors such as density, stickiness or conductivity, they work stably even in demanding process conditions.
