BinMaster - NCR-86 - Brochure

The BinMaster tilt switch is a versatile, cost-effective level indicator that can be used in a wide variety of applications and materials. Activating an alert when the device tilts at least 15 degrees, it is used to detect high levels of large, heavy materials in bins, tanks and silos. Alternatively, it can be used to detect plugs or clogs in chutes during process operations. The tilt switch features a simple, mechanical design that allows it to also be used as a high limit sensor when positioned over open piles or conveyor belts.Simple, Affordable Level DetectionVersatile Measurement for Tanks & ChutesIts rugged design offers you reliable operation with only one mov-ing part. When tilted at least 15 degrees, a steel ball inside of the device shifts position and activates a microswitch, alerting the user to a high level or clogged status. Generally, an optional stainless steel paddle extension or plastic sphere is installed on the end of the device to increase the sensitivity of the tilt switch. The tilt switch is installed over a desired control point using a wire rope, chain or other flexible hanger capable of supporting the device.Tilt Switch Level Indicatorwww.binmaster.comTilt Switch Level IndicatorThe tilt switch is suspended over a control point with wire rope, chain, or cable.* As material comes in contact with the paddle, the unit will begin to tilt.
