Monitor’s KA / KAX rotary paddle bin level indicators consist of the most reliable, rugged and economical point level control sensors available for detection of dry bulk materials. These easy to install switches are proven performers in a wide variety of bulk materials. Monitor’s paddle switches can be used to eliminate bin overflow, maintain a predetermined material level, indicate plugging of conveyors and pneumatic lines or provide any of a number of level control functions. Unlike many other available paddle units for bins and silos, Monitor’s paddle level indicators (sensores de nivel) incorporate a feature that automatically shuts off the motor of the unit when the paddle is in a stalled position, which both extends the life of the motor and minimizes maintenance.
Applications
Monitor’s rugged, reliable design make the paddle bin level indicator (sensor de nivel) compatible with many granular, pelletized and powder bulk applications. Monitor paddle switches can be used for high level indication of materials over 10 lb/ft³ (160 kg/m³ ) and for low and intermediate level indication for materials over 5 lb/ft³ (80 kg/m³). Monitor paddle units can be installed almost anywhere dry bulk materials are stored, including bins, hoppers, silos and tanks. Monitor’s KA unit is the most popular of our paddle bin monitors. This model is ideal for use in standard applications with a wide variety of materials. The KAX incorporates all the features of the KA model, but is specially designed to meet explosion-proof standards.
