The VLS5500 vibrating level switch is engineered for precise and reliable level detection in powders, granular bulk solids, and selected liquid applications. Designed for industrial process control, it offers dependable performance in storage systems such as silos, bins, and hoppers. With robust construction and advanced sensing capability, it ensures operational safety and efficiency across manufacturing environments.

Key Features

  • Accurate detection of powders and granular materials
  • Durable SS316 wetted parts for corrosion resistance
  • Wide detection length range from 200mm to 450mm
  • Supports multiple power supply options
  • High contact rating for reliable switching performance

Application

The VLS5500 is widely used in industries handling bulk materials, including cement, food processing, chemicals, and pharmaceuticals. It is ideal for monitoring material levels in silos, preventing overfilling, and ensuring continuous production flow. It also supports liquid level detection in varying viscosity and density ranges.

Design & Functionality

This vibrating level switch operates using a fork vibration principle that changes frequency when in contact with material. The sensor detects this variation and triggers a switching output. Its compact and rugged design ensures long-term stability, even in harsh industrial environments.

Total Crossed Beams

The sensor utilizes a precisely calibrated vibrating mechanism to maintain consistent detection accuracy across different material types. This ensures stable performance regardless of particle size or density variations.

Beam Pitch Options

Optimized structural design allows flexibility in detection length, making it suitable for various tank sizes and installation requirements. This adaptability enhances usability across multiple industrial setups.

Intrinsic Synchronism

The VLS5500 ensures synchronized vibration response, enabling fast and reliable detection without delays. This minimizes false triggering and improves process control accuracy.

Operational Advantages

  • Prevents overflow and material loss
  • Reduces downtime with reliable sensing
  • Enhances automation and process efficiency
  • Suitable for wide viscosity and density ranges
  • Low maintenance and long service life
