Vibration level switch
Vibranivo® - VN 5040
Point level measurement
Solids
bulk weight > 50 g/l (> 3 lbs/ft3)
The Vibranivo® VN 5040 vibrating fork is used in storage and process vessels as a full and demand detector in many dry and free flowing bulk solids. The vibrating level switch probe is supplied as a kit for tube extension with a cable length of 1500 mm and 4000 mm. Thus, the customer himself defines the length of the vibrating fork sensor via the tube length. The VN 5040 offers more space for wiring due to the larger housing and additionally a flameproof design for use in the GasEx area.
Maintenance-free sensor for use in many bulk materials
Flexibility in probe length due to self-assembly kit (modular)
Flameproof version available for use within potentially explosive atmospheres (gas)
