Products: Vibrating Rod: VR Series      


The VR Series of vibrating rods are piezoelectric devices with a single blade-shaped vibrating element. Material coming into contact with the probe dampens the vibration; material falling away returns the unit to normal vibration. This allows the unit to be used for high or low level indication.

The VR Series includes three different models:

  1. VR 21 - Standard unit with an insertion length of 7.37".
  2. VR 41 - Extends up to 13', using a solid galvanized or stainless steel extension tube.
  3. VR 51 - Extends up to 19.5', using a flexible cable extension.
Features
  • Suitable for high/Mid/low level indication

  • Detects extremely light, fluffy materials and materials with low dielectric constants

  • Unique "blade" probe design reduces false alarms caused by buildup

  • Insertion length adjustable from 7.37" to 19.5'

  • Switch selectable high/low fail-safe

  • No calibration required

  • Three sensitivity adjustments

  • Wear & maintenance-free

  • Auto sensing power supply

  • High temperature units available

  • Remote electronics available
