| The VR Series of vibrating rods
are piezoelectric devices with a single blade-shaped vibrating
element. Material coming into contact with the probe dampens
the vibration; material falling away returns the unit to normal
vibration. This allows the unit to be used for high or low
level indication.
The VR Series includes these different models: 
VR-21 Standard 7-Inch Vibrating Rod
The VR-21 is BinMaster’s standard piezoelectric driven
vibration type point level switch, which has an insertion
length of 7.37 inches. Its unique single-rod probe design
with a sword-shaped blade prevents bridging of material, making
it superior to typical “tuning fork” designs by
allowing material to easily flow by, preventing build up on
the blade. 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.
VR-41 Rigid Extended Vibrating Rod
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. A rigid one-inch pipe extension
is available in galvanized or stainless steel dependent on
the material application. The VR-41 is custom-manufactured
at BinMaster’s factory to meet customer specifications.
VR-51 Flexible Extended Vibrating Rod
The VR-51 extended vibrating rod uses a steel-rope reinforced
cable and allows for insertion lengths from 19 inches up to
19 feet. This vibrating rod with a flexible extension is custom
manufactured to the desired length specification at the BinMaster
factory. The VR-51 is intended for top mount applications
and can be used to detect materials that are heavy, medium
or light weight including those which are extremely light
and fluffy.
 CVR-600
Mini Vibrating Rod
The CVR-600 is a compact vibrating rod that is ideal for small
bins, hoppers, and feeders. Featuring an overall insertion
length of just six inches, it is suitable for space-constrained
applications. It can be mounted on the top or side of the
bin for high, medium and low level indications. It is easy
to install, fitting through a standard one-inch NPT mounting
socket and can be used in process temperatures up to 300ºF.
SHT 120 / 140 High Temperature Vibrating Rod
The SHT or Super High Temperature vibrating rod series is
built specifically for higher process temperatures up to 482°F
(250°C). It features a standard insulation tube that insulates
the electronics from excessive heat. It has a standard insertion
length of 7.24 inches for both top and side mount applications.
It can be extended from 13 inches up to 13 feet using a rigid
pipe extension for top mount applications where extra length
is desired.
Point Level Alarm Panel 
The Point Level Alarm Panel is designed to monitor bin levels
and automatically alarm when levels change – such as
reaching a high or low status. The alarm panel is available
with four to 24 level indicator stations making it convenient
to read status from multiple bins from a single panel. It
can be connected to an external horn or common alarm to provide
an alert status throughout a facility.
