Description

Point Level Switching TLI Operating on a principle of Piezo vibration, the VEGASWING vibrates the fork at the end of the sensor. When the fork is covered by product, the frequency of the forks vibration changes. The VEGASWING 61 detects this change and triggers a switching command. In order to prevent overfilling of the ballast tanks, the pumps or blowers have to be switched off quickly. The VEGASWING 61 vibrating level switch is a wear-and maintenance-free sensor and is the ideal solution for adjustment-free level detection in the ballast tanks. The VEGASWING 61 can also be used where high or low level detection of liquids is required, including such applications as towers, sumps, tanks and pipes.
