The Fork-11 Explosion-Proof Tuning Fork Level Switch is the perfect solution for measuring the presence of powdery and fine-grained bulk solids across a wide range of media and Explosion-Proof applications.

The probe of Fork-11 Explosion-Proof Tuning Fork Level Switch is based on a tuning fork harmonic resonance. It utilizes piezoelectric devices to drive the fork to vibrate and detect the changes of vibration. The fork vibrates in resonant frequency when it is in air. Once the fork comes into contact with application medium, the vibration amplitude of the fork will decrease substantially. Output from the detecting piezoelectric device will decrease accordingly. An integrated circuit is designed to analyze the amount of decrease and output a switch signal. By reasonably increasing the area of tines and precisely adjusting harmonic resonance, Jiwei Fork-11 Explosion-Proof Tuning Fork Level Switch offers great reliability and sensitivity. Therefore, it makes Fork-11 the best level switch for ultra-low-density media.

● It is mainly used in the areas with explosive hazard (such as chemical plant) for the measurement of particles.

● EPP and EPS processes in foam molding machines and plastic forming machines.

● Zircon sand and petroleum coke.

● Ultra-low density particles and powders.

● After spraying PTFE on the fork, it is especially suitable for fumed silica (SiO₂) level measurement. The density of fumed silica is as low as 0.01g/cm³, and the lowest detectable density of Fork-11 is 0.008g/cm³, which fully meets the measurement requirements of fumed silica working conditions.
