Terms & Conditions
The OPTISWITCH 3100 is a compact vibration level switch suitable for solids. It can be used for applications with a low density (e.g. aerosol) or for solid detection (e.g. in the water of sedimentation tanks at hydro-electric power stations).
Features & Options
- Abrasion resistant and highly robust design
- Simple setup without product
- Unaffected by changes of product properties (maintenance-free)
- Optional version to detect solids in water
- Remote housing up to 25 m / 82 ft
Typical applications
- Silos with light bulk goods
- Limit and overfill detection
- Detecting solids in water
