OPTISWITCH 4000 C Vibration Level Switch
Brand: Krohne
OPTISWITCH 4000 C series is a level sensor that uses a vibrating fork for detecting level. It is designed for use in all liquids.
It is not affected by foam and external vibration. It is also unaffected by variations of product properties such as εr, viscosity etc.
Features- Output options: relay, transistor, NAMUR, contactless electronic switch and 2-wire
- LED signal lamp for indicating the switching condition (with plastic housing only)
- Repeatability: ±2 mm
- Thread connections G/NPT 3/4"; flange sizes from DN25 PN40; Triclamp 1" or 2" and other hygienic fittings
