BinMaster vibrating rods feature a unique single-rod probe design with a sword-shaped blade that prevents bridging of material, making them superior to typical “tuning fork” designs by allowing material to easily flow by, preventing build up on the blade. Features include a self-cleaning sensor, switch selectable high/low fail-safe, and an auto sensing power supply which can accommodate 20 – 250 volts AC/DC. They feature three sensitivity adjustments – high for light and fluffy materials, medium, and low for heavier materials or materials that may tend to cling to the vibrating rod. They are easy to install, mounting to the vessel via a standard 1-1/2 inch NPT mounting socket and require no calibration. Remote electronics via a point level alarm panel are available to alert to bin levels for four up to 24 individual sensors.
The VR-21 is BinMaster’s standard piezoelectric driven vibration type point level switch, which has an insertion length of 7.37 inches. It is suitable for both top and side mount applications and is ideal for a wide variety of dry and bulk powder materials including extremely light, fluffy materials. The VR-41 is designed for use with a variety of heavy, medium and light materials ... including extremely light, fluffy materials. Intended for top mount locations, it is available in lengths from 13 inches up to 13 feet. The VR-51 extended vibrating rod uses a steel-rope reinforced cable and allows for insertion lengths from 19 inches up to 19 feet and is intended for top mount applications.

The vibrating rod of VEGAVIB is actuated via piezoceramic elements. If the vibrating rod is immersed, the amplitude will be damped. The amplitude change is processed by the integrated oscillator and converted into a switching command. Due to the rod design, it is nearly impossible for material, e.g. granules, to get wedged in. Typical applications are overfill or dry run protection systems, e.g. in flour, milk powder, sand, cement, plastic granules, styrofoam and down feathers. Even products with a specific gravity up to 0.015 g/cm³ (15 g/l) can be measured. An adjustment with medium is not necessary as the mounting location and the granulation size do not affect the measurement.
Advantages
- Virtually independent of product characteristics
- Optimum rod configuration for solids
- Easy cleaning
Applications
- Level detection of solids

The BinMaster 3DLevelScanner utilizes a 2-dimensional array beam-former that sends very low frequency, dust-penetrating acoustical pulses and receives echoes of the pulses from multiple points on the surface of the material in the bin. The 3DLevelScanner offers multiple point accuracy as the device takes measurements from multiple points versus a single point, thereby taking into account variations that can occur on material surfaces. Standard ultrasonic, radar or cable-based units measure just one point and determine a single distance, while the 3DLevelscanner takes measurements from multiple points within the bin, ensuring greater accuracy.
The low frequency technology penetrates dust, making it suitable for environments where ultrasonics and radar may fail. It is unaffected by material type and is appropriate for powders, granulates, pellets and other solids with no need for special calibration. Employing non-contact measurement, it is suitable for foods, chemicals and pharmaceuticals. There is no risk of moving parts coming into contact with bin material. It offers long measurement range of up to 220 feet and is appropriate for tall bins (taller than they are wide). Three independent transducers promote accuracy and system redundancy, making it one of the most advanced technologies available.
The 3DLevelScanner provides the user a scaled 4-20mA output that can represent either the product or headroom volume. Using an optional HART or RS-485 connection, the user can also connect to the scanner using the 3DLevelManager software. This advanced software allows the user to view real-time data from the scanner and make configuration changes remotely from a PC.

SolidAT provides practical cost effective solutions for wide area monitoring of assets based on our range of level meters. We focus on management of remote fuel tanks, water reservoirs, sewage flow, river level states and similar assets.
Providers of remote monitoring systems usually concentrate on communication links and control center software. These providers sometimes neglect the physical measurement aspect, which in many cases determines the quality of the complete solution. In contrast, SolidAT leverages its core expertise in level measurement to expand its offering for wireless monitoring. In our solutions, we exploit existing communication infrastructures such as cellular networks (GSM) and we propose simple-to-use local software packages for management.

Products Level Measurement - Capacitive level sensors
All of the capacitive level sensors are now available with automatic calibration should the overall length need to be changed.
The required length can be easily adjusted by the user. Once the length has been shortened the unit will require to be re-calibrated. This is now very simple, just requiring the "Zero Adjustment" button to be pressed with the tank empty and the "Maximum Value Adjustment" button to be pressed with the tank full. The calibration is then done automatically by the integrated micro controller.
The advantages of these level sensors includes the ease of adjustment, voltage or current outputs, extremly robust by virtue of the coaxial measuring principle and a 2" BSP head. Additional switching points are available optional.

The capcitive filling level systems operate according to the three-electrode principle. With this principle the container or an additional electrode serve as a counter-electrode to the probe electrodes. For this reason it is necessary with this system that the container is of a conductive material or a "substitute electrode" is fixed to the container wall, e.g. copper foil. These systems are available with probes for analogue filling level measurement of for detection of 1, 2 or 3 measuring points. The position of the switching points and the analogue measuring area is user-definable within the possible effective range and therefore it can be determined for optimal matching of each application. Level measurements of bulk material, liquids or pastes are possible with a dielectric constant as of εr 1,1.

The vessel, capacitance electrode and medium to be measured form together an electrical capacitor. The level change is monitored as a direct result of the variation in capacitance value around the probe, dependent upon the degree of immersion.
Advantages
- Rugged sensors suitable for universal applications
- High chemical resistance
Applications
- Level measurement and level detection of liquids and solids

The capacitive working LevelCheck 350C builds up a high-frequency, electrical field over the sensor surface.
If materials touches or is close to this field, the electrical field changes and the electrical signal changes within the sensor.
This is converted into a switching process. The sensitiveness of the sensor can be adjusted continuously to the adaptation
to different products.
