Point level detection devices from Emerson™ are ideal for high and low alarms, overfill prevention, pump control and to detect the level at a specific point in your tank.
Point level devices provide a simple, low maintenance technology for indicating the presence of liquids or solids. They are often installed as a high-level alarm for overfill prevention, and low-level alarm for tank or pipe empty detection.
It is good practice to fit high- and low-level alarm switches to tanks in addition to another measurement device.
Emerson™ has a wide range of point level devices including vibrating fork detectors, float and displacer switches, and ultrasonic level detectors.
Rosemount 2100 Series uses vibrating fork technology. Designed around the tuning fork principle, it consists of a two-pronged fork which vibrates at its natural frequency. The frequency changes depending on the media in which it is immersed. When in air, the forks vibrate at their natural frequency. When liquid covers the forks, the frequency drops.
Changes to the frequency are continuously monitored by the switch electronics, which then change the output state to operate an alarm, pump, or valve.
Solids level switches consists of several technologies that are maintenance free and suitable for full, demand or empty detection for all bulk media in all types of vessel.
They are simple to use and install, robust and reliable, insensitive to dust, electrical charge, adhesion and they handle extreme conditions such as high temperatures, pressure, mechanical stress and tensile forces.
To ensure a safe process, multiple devices can be installed in a vertical, horizontal or oblique position.
