Level sensors maintain accurate liquid levels in tanks, vats, and other vessels used in food and beverage processing preventing overflow and contamination or interruption of production – food industry level sensors should withstand vibrations stresses, turbulence factors and CIP/SIP cleaning processes.

Thermal expansion tanks providing heat transfer fluid systems need accurate level measurement to prevent overfill. Vibrating fork sensors are integral to SICK LBV sensors provides overfill warning for containers with bulk liquids or powdered materials – signalling full, empty or demand states.
