The VN 2030 vibrating fork level switch is engineered for accurate point level measurement in dry and free-flowing bulk solids. Built for industrial environments, it offers reliable detection of full, demand, and empty levels in storage silos and process vessels. With enhanced sensitivity, it excels in handling low-density materials such as powders and fine granules, ensuring consistent process control.
Key Features
- High sensitivity detection for very light bulk solids
- Stainless steel probe suitable for hygienic applications
- Wide temperature and pressure operating range
- Multiple output signal options for flexible integration
- Adjustable sensitivity and output delay for precise control
- Robust housing with IP66 protection
Application
The VN 2030 is widely used in industries handling dry bulk materials, including food processing, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and manufacturing. It is ideal for monitoring powder levels in silos, detecting material presence in pipelines, and preventing overflow or empty run conditions in process vessels. Its hygienic design ensures safe usage in regulated environments.
Design & Functionality
This vibrating fork sensor operates using a vibration-based measurement principle. When material comes into contact with the fork, the vibration frequency changes, triggering a switching signal. The stainless steel construction enhances durability and corrosion resistance while maintaining a smooth surface for hygienic compliance.
Total Crossed Beams
The sensor ensures precise level detection by maintaining stable vibration characteristics even in challenging material conditions. Its advanced sensing mechanism supports consistent performance across varying bulk densities.
Beam Pitch Options
Flexible mounting configurations, including top and horizontal installation, allow adaptation to different vessel designs. The adjustable immersion length further enhances installation versatility.
Intrinsic Synchronism
The VN 2030 maintains stable and reliable operation without requiring frequent recalibration. Its intrinsic synchronism ensures accurate switching even in fluctuating process conditions.
Operational Advantages
- Prevents overfilling and material loss
- Enhances process safety and efficiency
- Reduces maintenance with durable construction
- Ensures accurate detection of low-density powders
- Supports hygienic and industrial-grade applications
