Technical details and application highlights

Review the complete description, feature set, and specification details before sending your inquiry.

The Vibranivo VN 6020 vibrating fork level switch is engineered for accurate point level detection in dry and free-flowing bulk solids. It is designed to monitor full, demand, and empty levels in storage silos, process vessels, and pipelines. With enhanced sensitivity, the device reliably detects even very light materials, making it a dependable solution for modern industrial processes requiring precision and consistency.

Key Features

  • High sensitivity for lightweight powders and granules
  • Stainless steel probe for hygienic and corrosion-resistant use
  • Flexible mounting options for diverse industrial setups
  • Flameproof housing option for hazardous environments
  • Adjustable sensitivity and output delay for process control
  • Wide voltage compatibility and multiple signal outputs

Application

This vibrating fork level sensor is widely used in industries handling bulk solids such as food processing, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, cement, and plastics. It is ideal for monitoring material levels in silos, hoppers, downpipes, and storage containers. The device helps prevent overflow, avoid dry running, and maintain continuous process efficiency.

Design & Functionality

The VN 6020 operates using a vibration-based measurement principle. When the fork is covered by material, the vibration frequency changes, triggering a switching signal. Its robust design ensures reliable operation even in challenging environments with dust, buildup, or fluctuating material density.

Total Crossed Beams

The optimized fork design ensures consistent detection across varying material densities. It maintains stable performance even with uneven material flow, ensuring accurate level indication without false triggering.

Beam Pitch Options

The sensor supports multiple configuration options to adapt to different material types and installation requirements. Enhanced sensitivity versions allow detection of extremely low-density solids.

Intrinsic Synchronism

The device maintains stable vibration frequency through intrinsic synchronization, ensuring consistent switching accuracy and minimizing maintenance requirements over time.

Operational Advantages

  • Prevents overfilling and material loss
  • Ensures continuous production flow
  • Reduces manual monitoring and downtime
  • Suitable for hygienic and hazardous environments
  • Long service life with minimal maintenance
