Principle
A specially shaped tuning fork is kept vibrating using piezo-electric elements. The oscillation of the tuning fork damps when in contact with the material. The loss of oscillation amplitude is detected and used for switching a relay. The output contacts of the relay are in turn used for annunciation and/or control.
Benefits
- Better immunity to external vibrations
- Polished finish for hygienic applications
- Shorter Probe Lengths
- Self Diagnosis
