Types and applications of anti-corrosion tuning fork switches

　　The tuning fork switch is named because its appearance is similar to the "Y"-shaped tuning fork used by musicians to tune. The application field of tuning fork switches is very wide. It can be said that as long as there are storage tanks, pipelines and other occasions where level measurement products are needed, it is easy to see the traces of tuning fork switches. Because of its wide application, it is inevitable to be used in measurement occasions with corrosive media. When measuring corrosive media, it is necessary to use an anti-corrosion tuning fork switch with an anti-corrosion effect. In order to enable instrument users to have a deeper understanding of anti-corrosion tuning fork switches, this article will talk about the types and applications of anti-corrosion tuning fork switches.

1. Types of anti-corrosion tuning fork switches

　　Anti-corrosion tuning fork switches can be divided into anti-corrosion tuning fork liquid level switches and anti-corrosion tuning fork material level switches according to the type and specifications of the measured medium.

　　Of course, there are many other ways to classify according to temperature, explosion-proof and other standards. In practical applications, what type of anti-corrosion tuning fork switch should be used? It is necessary to make a reasonable selection based on the specific application conditions to avoid the situation where it cannot be used due to improper selection.

2. Application of anti-corrosion tuning fork switch

　　The anti-corrosion tuning fork switch made of anti-corrosion materials and coatings not only prolongs the service life of the instrument, but also greatly expands its measurement range. In addition to being applicable to the measurement field of conventional tuning fork switches, it can also be used in various corrosive media such as acids, alkalis, and salts.

　　Taking the anti-corrosion tuning fork switch of Jiwei as an example, the liquid contact parts (such as fork body and process connection) of the Jiwei Ring-11 anti-corrosion tuning fork liquid level switch can be made of 316L material and ECTFE, PFA, enamel and other coatings, which can be used for the measurement of various strong acid and alkali corrosive liquids in storage tanks, tanks and reactors; while the Jiwei Fork-11 anti-corrosion tuning fork level switch uses the highly corrosion-resistant material 316L, which is mainly used for the level measurement of solid powders and particles such as salt mines.
