Replacing BinMaster’s SHT-140, the VRX71 vibrating probe level sensor with pipe extension for high temperatures is ideal for use in harsh processing environments up to 480°F (250°C) where an extended probe is necessary for high-level or plugged chute alerts.
Now available with IECEx/ATEX Zone 20 and 21 approvals, the VRX71 features a bright, built-in LED status indicator that can be viewed from afar, turning from red to green based on whether material is or is not covering the probe and damping its vibration.
The sensor is mounted at the top of a bin, tank, silo, or vessel with 1-1/2" NPT threads. Its rigid pipe extension is extendable from 10.25” to 13.3’ (33.02 cm to 3.96 m) and ends in a reinforced stainless steel vibrating blade.
VRX71 delivers consistent results in demanding conditions, measuring anything from heavy and chunky mining and aggregate materials to light, low-dielectric materials as light as 1.9 lb./ft.³ (30 g/liter) such as fly ash powder, flakes, and pellets.
By providing reliable alerts in high-temperature environments, workers can stay safe from heated materials, prevent overfills, and ensure materials are flowing as intended, reducing the risk of operational downtime due to blockages.
VRX rigid extensions are made to order in Lincoln, Nebraska, USA to best fit your application.
