Rosemount 2130 SIL2 certified vibrating short-fork level switch

The Rosemount 2130 vibrating short-fork level switch offers SIL2 certification. This version features built-in fault monitoring and self-checking diagnostics and is suitable for high- and low-level alarms.

The switch is simple and easy to use, reliable in a wide range of applications and requires no on-site calibration. The visible heartbeat LED gives an instant visual indication that the unit is operational. In addition, built-in fault monitoring and self-checking diagnostics can detect extreme corrosion of the forks, or any other internal or external damage to the fork sensor, which triggers a warning LED and safe handling of the load.

Further functionality in the new version includes a low-density option suitable for liquids with a specific gravity down to 0.5 (500 kg/m³), a wide choice of electronic output options for use on their own, or as part of an analog or digital plant monitoring network.

The switch is designed for use in extreme temperatures ranging from -70 to 260°C and is available with 316L stainless steel as standard, ECTFE/PFA copolymer coated 316L stainless steel, or corrosion-resistant alloy C wet side, as well as a choice of electronic output types and aluminium or stainless steel housing options.
