Which of the following statements is accurate concerning the vibration sensing device used with the separator shown in the illustration? Illustration MO-0127

Correct Answer: Option C — The detector mechanism consists of an armature suspended on a flexure pivot and restrained from motion by a permanent magnet acting through a small air gap.

Vibration safety cutouts on modern purifiers utilize a sensitive armature suspended on a flexure pivot, restrained dynamically by a permanent magnet across a precise air gap to detect excessive unbalance from accumulated sludge.
