Level Detection in Low Bulk Density Materials

Standard Vibrating Probe Sensors

A vibrating probe—also known as a vibrating level switch or vibrating rod—is utilized as a high- or low-level indicator for bulk solids level detection in silos, or is used for plugged chute detection. BinMaster offers a selection of VRX vibrating level sensors that come in a standard length.

 

The VRX21 standard vibrating rod level switch has a buildup-resistant, sword-shaped probe that can also be used for sediment detection. VRX31 for sanitary applications includes a stainless-steel fitting and tri-clover clamp. The VRX61 is for high temperatures up to 482°F (250°C).

 

VF-90 is a vibrating fork level sensor with a stainless-steel fork and optional hazloc approvals. The round-rod VR-90 vibrating level switch can also be manufactured for hazardous locations.
