What is the difference between a fork-type level switch and a radio frequency admittance level switch?
Thread Content
These two level switches look very similar. Apart from their different working principles, what are the differences in their use?
A tuning fork level switch generates vibrations through its internal piezoelectric crystal and fork structure; when it encounters the medium being measured, it stops vibrating and simultaneously sends out a relay signal； RF admittance switches are part of RF technology; more detailed information on this topic can be found online. In practical applications, tuning forks are more often used in situations involving liquids and fine powders (as tuning forks tend to get clogged with large solid particles) ； RF switches can be used in liquid and solid applications. In cases where the solid particles are large in diameter, a protective cover should be installed to prevent damage to the rod; for applications involving liquids under high pressure, fork-type switches are recommended. (If there are any shortcomings, I would appreciate guidance from the experts), thank you!
Great! You helped me understand a bit; I’ll go and learn more in detail about the principles of radio frequency admittance. Thank you, I’m sending you flowers
