General specifications
Measuring methodThe tuning fork is brought to its resonance frequency by means of a piezoelectric drive. If the tuning fork is covered by liquid, this frequency changes. The electronics monitor the resonance frequency and indicate whether the tuning fork is freely vibrating or is covered by liquid.
Construction typecompact device
device with short tube
Operating modeMAX = maximum safety:
The device keeps the electronic switch closed as long as the liquid level is below the fork.
example application: overspill protection
MIN = minimum safety:
The device keeps the electronic switch closed as long as the fork is immersed in liquid.
example application: dry running protection of pumps
The electronic switch opens if the limit is reached, if a fault occurs or in the event of a power fails (quiescent current principle)
