The LTU-2000 Series tuning
fork level switches are point level
switches that detect high or low
liquid levels. Based on the
vibrating tuning fork principle, these
units accurately detect contact with
a liquid, triggering a switching
output. Depending on the liquid
viscosity, the LTU-2000 is virtually
immune to chemical or physical
properties, and can be installed at
any angle into a pipe or tank.
Recalibration is not required
between batches, and units may
be cleaned in place. Models are
available with PNP, relay or direct
load switching.
All shown smaller
than actual size.
