SERIES SCX

FINETEK SCX SERIES | VIBRATING TUNING FORK LEVEL SWITCH FOR SOLIDS

The FineTek SCX series is a high-performance vibrating tuning fork and rod level switch designed for point level detection of powders, granules, and bulk solids in industrial containers. It is applicable to the max. and min. level detection of the tanks or tubes filled with various solid/liquid media. The product has a variety of applications, such as in the chemical fiber industry, rubber industry, tire industry, cement industry, steel industry, food industry, pharmaceutical industry, and animal feed factories in terms of the level detection for the bins of the raw material/process/finished products.

 

FINETEK SCX SERIES | VIBRATING TUNING FORK LEVEL SWITCH FOR SOLIDS

The Series SCX operates on the principle of piezoelectric resonance. Piezoelectric crystals built into the vibration tube cause it to vibrate at a specific frequency. When the probe comes into contact with material, the vibration is dampened, changing the electronic feedback. This change is detected by the solid-state electronics, which then switch the output state to indicate the presence of material. The SCX is specifically engineered for high-density and low-density solid materials, offering a rounded design that prevents medium build-up and a high vibration force that helps shake off attachments.

PRODUCT USES:

  • Powder Level Control: Used for milk powder, flour, spices, coffee, salt, sugar, and tobacco.
  • Granular Materials: Detection of grains, chocolate, gravel, glass fine powder, and foundry sand.
  • Plastics Industry: Monitoring plastic pellets and polystyrene powder.
  • Construction & Mining: Level control for cement, clay, coal ash, and dry soot in cement plants and coal mines.
  • Food & Pharmaceutical: Reliable level sensing in processing tanks and ingredient bins.
  • Chemical & Energy: Ideal for environments with varying moisture contents or low dielectric constants where capacitance switches may fail.
