FAQs of Vibrating Fork Point Level Switch:
Q: How does the vibrating fork point level switch operate in both liquids and solids?
A: The vibrating fork sensor operates at approximately 400 Hz, causing its stainless steel prongs to vibrate. When the medium surrounds the fork, its vibration frequency changes, allowing the switch to detect the presence or absence of material, regardless of whether it is liquid or solid.Q: What is the typical process for installing this level switch?
A: Installation involves mounting the switch using the 1" BSP or NPT threaded connection, or an optional flange, onto the process vessel. Electrical connections can be made via M20 x 1.5 or PG13.5 cable entries. It is compatible with a wide voltage range and supports both relay and transistor output wiring.Q: When is it beneficial to use a vibrating fork level switch over other sensor types?
A: Using a vibrating fork level switch is advantageous when precise and reliable point level detection is needed for either solids or liquids. It requires minimal calibration, works with diverse materials of density 0.7 g/cm, and is unaffected by factors such as conductivity, dielectric constant, or foam.Q: Where can this switch be employed within industrial applications?
A: This switch finds application in industries such as chemical, water treatment, food processing, and bulk solids handling. It suits tanks, silos, hoppers, and pipelines where accurate high or low level detection is essential to prevent system failures or ensure product consistency.Q: What are the main benefits of using the relay (SPDT) and PNP/NPN transistor output types?
A: Relay (SPDT) output allows direct control of alarms or pumps, while PNP/NPN transistor outputs easily interface with PLCs or automation systems. This variety ensures the level switch integrates effortlessly into multiple control architectures for flexible system design.Q: How does the device ensure safe and reliable operation under harsh conditions?
A: With its IP66/IP67 aluminum die-cast or plastic enclosure, stainless steel prongs, and high insulation resistance, the switch is protected against dust, water ingress, and electrical breakdown. It maintains reliable operation across a wide temperature and pressure range, boasting a mechanical life of over 10 million operations.
