FAQs of Vibrating Fork Level Switch:
Q: How does the Vibrating Fork Level Switch operate in tanks and vessels?
A: The switch functions by vibrating at approximately 350 Hz; when the fork comes in contact with a medium above 0.7 g/cm, vibration changes, triggering the relay output and LED indication for accurate level detection in tanks and vessels.
Q: What are the main benefits of using this level switch in industrial plants?
A: Its top-notch automation, fast response time (<1 second), and radiant durability provide dependable solid and liquid detection, ensuring reliable operation in process control environments such as chemical, water treatment, or storage plants.
Q: Where can the Vibrating Fork Level Switch be installed?
A: It can be installed in side mounts of tanks, vessels, or process pipelines, supporting screw, flanged, and threaded connections in 1", 1.5", or 2" BSP/NPT standards, with enclosure protection rated at IP65/IP68.
Q: How is the packaging and shipping process ensured for safe delivery?
A: Each unit is securely packaged to withstand freight handling, and shipping is expedited for timely arrival, typically within 710 days. International certifications like CE and ISO guarantee product integrity on arrival.
Q: What media types and operating conditions can the switch handle?
A: It is suitable for liquids, slurries, and dry materials, tolerates fluid densities above 0.7 g/cm, viscosities up to 10,000 cp, operating pressures up to 10 kg/cm, and temperatures up to 80C, making it ideal for both harsh and standard industrial conditions.
Q: When should users opt for custom probe lengths or materials?
A: Custom options are recommended when specific tank depths, medium properties, or unique installation conditions require adjustment, allowing the switch to be tailored in probe length (up to 2500 mm) and construction material (S.S, P.P, TEFLON).
