Measuring techniques for point level detection

In point level detection, a point level switch detects when a certain predefined level is reached. Such a device is employed when it is not necessary to measure every possible intermediate level, as is the case with continuous level measurement. A switching command starts or stops filling equipment such as conveyors or pumps. Point level switches outputting a binary signal can be integrated into a process control system.
Point level detection systems can be used in liquids, pastes, powders or coarse bulk solids.
Typical applications for level switches are:

VEGASWING, VEGAVIB, VEGAWAVE: Point level measurement with vibrating level switches ![]() In point level measurement with vibrating level switches, a rod or a fork is set vibrating. When the vibrating probe comes into contact with the medium, the vibration changes and the vibrating level switch outputs a switching command. Vibrating level switches are used as overfill protection devices or low-level indicators in liquids as well as in granular and powdery bulk solids. The advantages

VEGACAP: Point level detection with capacitive level switches ![]() In capacitive point level detection, the sensor and vessel form the two electrodes of a capacitor. Any capacitance change caused by a level change is converted into a switching signal. Thanks to the shortenable cable and rod versions, level switches can be perfectly adapted to any application. They are often used for overfill or dry run protection as well as oil/water or foam detection. The advantages

VEGAKON, EL: Point level detection with conductive point level switches ![]() When the electrodes of the conductive point level sensor come into contact with a conductive fluid, a small alternating current begins to flow. The electronics then triggers a switching command. Conductive point level sensors are used in all areas of industrial instrumentation, e.g. as overflow protection, pump control or dry run protection.

VEGAMIP: Point level detection with microwave barrier ![]() The microwave barrier functions like a light barrier: when the medium gets in the way of the microwave beam between the transmitter and the receiver, the signal is attenuated. This change is detected by the receiver and converted into a switching signal. The microwave barrier is ideal for point level detection of liquids and solids. Another area of application is backup detection on conveyor belts. The advantages

PROTRAC: Radiometric point level detection ![]() Radiometric point level detection operates with a radioactive source that emits focussed gamma radiation. The radiation is picked up by a detector on the opposite side of the vessel. When the gamma rays are blocked by the medium, the detector receives little or no radiation. The intensity changes of the incoming radiation are forwarded as signals by a relay. The advantages
