NWS Liquid Level Switch
Brand: KOBOLD Instruments, IncThe KOBOLD liquid level switch NWS is designed as a 2 and 3-wire switch and can be universally used in vessels and pipelines. The NWS operates on the tuning fork principle in air at resonance frequency.
A piezoelectric crystal is used for excitation of oscillations and for monitoring the actual oscillation frequency.
When the fork is immersed in liquid, the frequency changes: this change is detected electronically and the output signal is changed. The NWS operates as a 2-wire switch in series with the load.
The simple electronic switch is operated by the liquid. The NWS can also be connected to a PLC through a third terminal.
