    Compact Tuning Fork Level Switch - Overview

    This product is a liquid-level switch based on vibrating short tuning fork technology. A piezoelectric crystal is used to vibrate the tuning fork at its natural frequency. When used for low-level alarm purposes, the liquid in the container drains downward through the tuning fork, causing a change in natural frequency. This is detected by the electronic components and switches the output state. When used for high-level alarm purposes, the liquid in the container rises and makes contact with the tuning fork which changes the vibrating frequency, switching the output state. This compact design is made from stainless steel, making it a durable instrument suitable for a variety of liquid applications including viscous liquids, aerated liquids, and grout. The switches are threaded into piping or storage tanks, or installed in food industry facilities through sanitary fittings. The direct load switch is suitable for all power or PNP outputs and is used as a direct interface to the PLC. Apply only to secure areas. Operation is affected by flow, turbulence, bubbles, vibrations, solids content, coating, liquid properties, and product changes.

    Guided Float Switch - Overview

    The Guided Float Switch is used to control the level of liquid in tanks economically. The switch is virtually maintenance-free and is compact in design. The reed contacts have high switch capacity. The reed contact in the sensor body is switched with a magnet. The switching function (N/O contact and N/C contact) is determined by the installation position. The function can be changed by simply turning 180°. It is especially suited for the simple, mechanical monitoring of fill levels in very small tanks. The housing is made of PP or PVDF making it resistant to several chemicals. Applications include: Cooling Water, Demineralised Water, Water/Glycol Solutions and Chemicals.

    Level Float Switch  - Overview

    The Level Float Switch is a double-chambered float made of injection moulded, tough polypropylene that ensures good waterproof protection. The contacting microswitch is incorporated in the float. The cable of the level switch is waterproof and PVC-insulated. The level switching takes place when the contact reaches the ±45° switching angle. The switching differential of the level switch is adjustable by the position of the counterweight on the cable. The level switches should be arranged appropriately in case of multi-level switching tasks to avoid undesired tangling of the cables. Suitable for level switching of various liquids, sewage in shafts, tanks, basins or cisterns. Different control tasks such as liquid level monitoring and pump control can be realised. As it is a mercury-free contact it is suitable for level switching of drinking water, raw water or polluted liquids with low solid content.
