Introduction
1.1
Overview
Mobrey vibrating rod level switches are suitable for low and high level indication of granules and
powders with a minimum 0.05 kg/dm
3
density such as cement, lime, sand, grain, feed, sugar, etc.
Dust Ex versions are available for using the instrument in an explosion-proof environment.
The vibrating rod is a mechanical resonant system, excited and kept in resonance by an electronic unit.
The medium to be measured, when reaching the vibration rod end, will damp the vibration. The change
in vibration intensity is sensed by an electronic unit, which, upon the elapse of the delay time, actuates
the output circuit.
