VEGA VEGAVIB 61 Vibrating Level Switch

VEGA Level Switches
Level Switch VEGA VEGAVIB 61
VEGA VEGAVIB 61 is a vibrating level switch designed for use with granular and coarse-grained bulk solids, reliably and accurately the minimum or maximum level.
The VEGAVIB 61 has a smooth surface without corners and edges which avoids jamming of the bulk solid and allowing for it to be easily cleaned.

VEGA LEVEL Switch – VEGAVIB 61 FEATURES
Function
The vibrating rod of VEGAVIB 61 is energized by a piezo drive to vibrate at its resonance frequency. If the medium covers the vibrating rod, the amplitude is damped.
The electronics detects this change and converts it into a switching command. A reliable function in granulated bulk solids is ensured by the ideal rod design.
