3.2 Principle of operation
OPTISWITCH 3100 C is a point level sensor with tuning fork for point
level detection.
It is designed for industrial use in all areas of process technology and
is preferably used for bulk solids.
Typical applications are overfill and dry run protection. Thanks to its
simple and robust measuring system, OPTISWITCH 3100 C is virtu-
ally unaffected by the chemical and physical properties of the bulk
solid.
