VN2

Float, Level Sensors

A VN2 application field and working principle are applications that measure the level of liquid or fluid in a container. This is often done with a combination of a mechanical level float and a VN2 level sensor, a device that uses the differences in pressure to determine the level of the liquid in the container. The VN2 level sensor is a hazardous area equipment with intrinsically-safe characteristics that operates in a similar way to other level sensors.

Float level sensors work on the basis of buoyancy; they use an external float that is calibrated to move up and down in response to the level of liquid in a container. As the liquid rises and falls, the float will move correspondingly. The float will also be connected to a device on the side of the tank, measuring the movement of the float on the outside and converting this into a signal that can be read and monitored. The sensitivity of the float can be adjusted to allow for different levels of sensitivity for different levels.

The VN2 level sensor combines an additional level of accuracy with additional safety features. The VN2 level sensor reads the liquid pressure inside the tank, and makes adjustments accordingly, allowing for more precise measurements over what the float sensor can provide. The VN2 level sensor also has intrinsically-safe features, meaning it won’t blow a fuse or spark in the event of pressure changes. This makes the VN2 level sensor ideal for use in hazardous areas with hazardous liquids, such as oil refineries or chemical holding tanks.

The VN2 level sensor is also capable of being used with other types of level sensors, such as ultrasonic and radar types. This can be used to provide a more reliable and accurate reading than either a float or VN2 level sensor alone. This is especially useful in applications such as drinking water tanks or other tanks where the surface of the liquid is not always constant.

Overall, the VN2 level sensor is a very useful device for measuring the level of liquids in containers. The VN2 level sensor adds an extra layer of accuracy and safety to such measurements, allowing for even more precise readings of the liquid levels. This makes the VN2 level sensor an invaluable tool for use in hazardous areas with potentially hazardous liquids.
