Description

The VEGASWING 51 is a universal level switch that delivers accurate and maintenance-free point level detection for all types of liquids. It uses a vibrating tuning fork to detect when liquid reaches the sensor, with no need for calibration or adjustment. This makes it especially useful in marine environments, where consistent performance is required across varying fluid types and conditions.

Compact and easy to install, the VEGASWING 51 fits into even the most space-constrained applications on board vessels and offshore installations. It is resistant to vibrations, pressure changes, and buildup, ensuring stable operation over time. Whether monitoring bilge water, oil sumps, cooling systems, or drinking water tanks, the VEGASWING 51 provides dependable switching at the right moment — every time.

Because the sensor is unaffected by foam, turbulence, or fluid conductivity, it is a preferred solution for safety-critical applications like dry run protection in pumps, leak detection in engine rooms, and overflow prevention in storage tanks. The absence of moving parts guarantees a long service life and eliminates costly maintenance.

Marine Technic supplies the VEGASWING 51 to shipowners, shipbuilders, and system integrators who need precise and rugged level control. With in-depth experience in VEGA instrumentation and marine operations, we deliver tailored sensor solutions that meet the highest standards in safety, compliance, and reliability.
