RS85 – ABB Vibrating Fork Level Switch

vibratingThe resonator utilizes a piezoelectric driven tuning fork that exhibits a large change in resonant frequency when immersed in any liquid. A “smart” microprocessor-based electronic unit keeps the sensor in a resonant state as it changes from dry to wet or wet to dry.
