The Type 2280 +GF+ Tuning Forks are a vibrating fork level switch suitable for level detection of liquids or granular, powdered solids. Mounted on tanks filling / emptying can be controlled using these devices just as well they can generate fail-safe alarms providing overfill- or dry run protection. The operation principle is based on the electronic circuit exciting the fork probe making it vibrate. As the medium reaches and covers the fork its vibration changes. The electronics senses the change of vibration and gives output signal after a selected delay.
Features of the Signet 2280 vibrating fork level switch include:
- Maintenance free vibrating principle
- Independent of the liquid conductivity, dielectric constant, viscosity, pressure, and temperature
- Selectable sensitivity
- Relay or electronic output
- Temperatures up to 130 degrees
- ATEX and WHG approvals
- IP67, 65/68 protection
Typical Applications:
- River water
- Water/Glycol Solutions
- Potable water
- Demineralized water
- Cooling Water
- Chemicals
