NWP - Plastic Vibrating Fork Level Switches

 FEATURES

  • All Plastic Construction
  • Tolerates Foaming, Turbulence and Coatings
  • Reliable Solid State Design
  • No Wear Components
  • NEMA 6 rating

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

NWP level switch works on the vibrating fork principle. The tuning fork vibrates at a frequency of 400 Hz in air. When the fork becomes immersed in liquid or slurry, the vibration ceases. This cessation is detected by the electronics which activate a transistor switch or SPST relay.

The robust vibrating fork technology provides a reliable switch for a multitude of tough applications and is suitable for use with foaming, turbulent and some coating media. The all solid state design affords the user the ultimate in reliability. A chemically resistant all-plastic design makes it ideal for use with many aggressive liquids.

Should your application require a higher power switching capability, a 10 amp relay output is available through use of the RL- 5900 series power supply/relay module.
