Level measurement with vibrating point level switch, a fork is shaken when level measurement is made. If the vibrating probe comes into contact with the medium, the oscillation changes and the vibrating limit switch issues a switching command. The vibrating level switch is used as an overflow safety or empty alarm in both liquids and solid materials in the form of granules and powders. Vibrating level switches provide easy installation. Vibrating limit switch provides the possibility to start up without a product. Vibrating level switches are a safe measurement method.
The electronics of the VF-LFV12 stimulate the piezo-electric crystals inside the tuning fork that make the fork tines vibrate at natural resonant frequencies in free air.
When the fork tips are immersed in the liquid, the vibration frequency of the fork decreases due to the density of the liquid.
This change in frequency is detected by the electronic circuit.
Thus, the presence of liquid is detected.
