Product Description

The VEGA VEGASWING 51 Vibrating Level Switch is a compact and highly reliable point level detection instrument designed for liquids in industrial process systems.

Using a vibrating tuning fork principle, it detects the presence or absence of liquid directly at the measuring point with millimeter-level accuracy, independent of medium properties such as conductivity, viscosity, or turbulence.

It is widely used as an overfill protection device, dry-run protection switch, and pump control safety sensor in tanks, pipelines, and storage systems. Its maintenance-free design and high reliability make it a cost-effective solution for industrial automation and safety applications.
