...in challenging applications Fit and Forget Once installed, the 2100 series is ready to go. It needs no calibration and requires minimum installation. The heart-beat LED gives instant visual indication that the unit is operational. In addition, the 2130 and 2160 have enhanced instrument health monitoring diagnostics that can detect external damage to the forks, internal damage to the sensor, excessive corrosion and over-temperature. With its local magnetic test point, functional testing of the instrument and system is easy. You install it and forget it. Corroded or damaged forks Extended high and low temperature performance The 2120 is a popular choice for high and low level alarm and pump control duties for its simplicity, ease of use and reliability. The 2130 and 2160 extreme temperature versions enable standardization of Rosemount vibrating fork switches across a wide range of process environments and is ideally suited for harsh conditions where a high level of reliability must be maintained. Magnetic test point Wireless Capability The 2160 Wireless vibrating fork liquid level switch combines both our wireless expertise and vibrating short fork technology. It includes all the features of our wired level switches but without the complication and cost of wiring. The 2160 powers PlantWeb by communicating switch output state, diagnostics and PlantWeb alerts and its WirelessHART capabilities create a self-organising mesh network. Configuration and diagnostics are available using AMS Suite or 475 Field Communicator, improving maintenance efficiency and reducing trips to the field. Fast drip forks Superior performance Functionality is virtually unaffected by flow, turbulence, bubbles, foam or vibration. The Fast Drip fork design allows the liquid to be quickly drawn away from the fork tip, making the 2100 series quicker and more responsive in high density or viscous liquid applications. With a user selectable time delay feature, the risk of false switching is minimized in turbulent or splashing applications. Adjustable switching delay

Applications Overfill protection Spillage caused by overfilling can be hazardous to people and the environment, resulting in lost product and potentially high clean up costs. All models are available with DiBt/WHG overfill protection approval. High and low level alarms Maximum and minimum level detection in tanks containing many different types of liquids are ideal applications for the 2100 series. It is best practice to fit an independent high level alarm switch as a backup to an installed level device in case of primary device failure. Limit detection / pump control A level switch will detect when maximum liquid level is reached, activating a pump. To protect the pump from running dry a second switch is fitted to detect minimum level and switch off the pump. This is an ideal application for the 2100 series. Run dry / pump protection The loss of a pump due to dry running can be an expensive or dangerous problem in a plant including loss of product and damage to nearby equipment. A 2100 series level switch will detect minimum level, avoiding pump damage. Hygienic applications With optional highly polished forks providing a surface finish (Ra) better than 0.4 µm, the 2100 series meets the principle design criteria of the most stringent hygienic requirements. High temperature applications The 2130 and 2160 are designed for extreme temperatures. Their robust design makes them suitable for continuous operation across a temperature range of -94 to 500 F (-70 to 260 C). Wireless applications Wireless communications allow process plant managers to save up to 90% of installation costs, enabling them to collect more data at central locations than previously possible. The Rosemount 2160 is the world's first WirelessHART level switch, and the 2120 and 2130 may be used with a Rosemount 702 transmitter for wireless applications. The combination of Emerson's wireless expertise and vibrating short fork technology has resulted in the world's first WirelessHART level switch, the Rosemount 2160. In addition, the 2120 and 2130 may be used with a Rosemount 702 wireless transmitter for wireless applications.
