AVS61 Series
AVS61 Series Tuning Fork Vibrating Level Switch features a core element that is a pair of tuning forks with integrated vibrator. The vibrating fork oscillates at its natural frequency, the resonance frequency decreases when the vibrating fork comes into contact with a medium. The frequency change is detected and is converted to a switching signal output. AVS61 Series supports multiple switching signal outputs, such as relay, PNP or NPN, NAMUR, and 8 / 16 mA.
AVS61 Series is suitable for limit detection of liquid / material levels in vessels, dry-run protection of pumps, pipeline overflow protection, etc. It is widely used in petroleum, chemical industry, tap water, wastewater, food, pharmaceuticals, and other industries.
Features
