Application of Tuning Fork Level Switches in Measuring Floating Medium in Water Recently, Jiwei Fork-11 Tuning Fork Level Switches were successfully operated in PVDF interface level measurement in a chemical factory. Fork-11 Tuning Fork Level Switches applied to control VDF monomer level in the water Polyvinylidene fluoride or polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF)is a semi-crystalline thermoplastic fluoropolymer. Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) resin mainly refers to the homopolymer of vinylidene fluoride or the copolymer of vinylidene fluoride and a small amount of other vinylidene fluoride monomers. It has the characteristics of both fluororesin and general resin. The resin itself has good chemical corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance, oxidation resistance, weather resistance, radiation resistance, as well as piezoelectric, dielectric, thermoelectric and other special properties, so it is widely used in high-end functional films such as piezoelectric film, solar back plate film, lithium battery diaphragm, etc.

Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) Difficulties The production process of PVDF requires at least 6 washes to obtain a high-purity finished product. After stirring and dispersing, VDF monomers are suspended in the form of droplets in the dispersed medium of deionized water. In previous washing processes, staffs were arranged to monitor the level. When the discharged liquid changed from pure water to white VDF monomer, the control room was notified to close the discharge valve. However, the density of VDF monomer is extremely close to that of water, and it is floating on water, failure to close the...

Jiwei Solution After receiving client inquiries, Jiwei engineer communicated with the client and required 6 buckets of VDF s monomer samples from different production process. For different processes, the VDF monomer in water becomes thinner, so the density of floating VDF monomer in the water becomes closer to that of water, making it more difficult to accurately measure the interface. Fork-11 Tuning Fork Level Switch We analyzed the different working conditions of different process media and continuously adjusted the frequency and amplitude of the fork in water and in various processes to achieve...

from the detecting piezoelectric device will decrease accordingly. An integrated circuit is designed to analyze the amount of decrease and output a switch signal. By reasonably increasing the area of tines and precisely adjusting harmonic resonance, Jiwei Fork-11 Tuning Fork Level Switch offers great reliability and sensitivity: ● Reasonable design of tines and precisely adjusted of fork resonant frequency. Fork-11 can be used in light powders and flakes with bulk densities as low as 0.008g/cm³. ● Particularly suits for level measurement of powdery, fine-grained bulk solids, can effectively avoid...
