Check Levels Wirelessly

June 4, 2010
Billed as the industry’s first WirelessHart point level switch, the Rosemount 2160 vibrating fork liquid level switch has all the same features as the wired level switches in the Rosemount 2100 series, but without the complication and cost of wiring. 
Suitable for almost all liquid applications, the 2160 liquid level switch is virtually unaffected by flow, bubbles, turbulence, foam, vibration, solids content, coating, liquid properties and product variations, says the vendor. It is designed for use in extreme temperatures and is said to perform in harsh process conditions that are unsuitable for other switches. Using WirelessHart technology that enables level detection to be made in locations previously inaccessible or too costly for wired devices, typical applications include overfill protection, high and low level alarms, pump control (limit detection), and pump protection or empty pipe detection.Emerson Process Management www.emersonprocess.com800.854.8257
