Robust Build and Versatile MountingThe stainless steel paddle and aluminum die-cast enclosure ensure longevity and protection against harsh environments. The device supports both threaded and flange mounting, making it adaptable to various installation requirements. Its powder-coated finish provides additional resilience, while the oil seal helps prolong operational life by preventing contaminants from entering the shaft.
Precision Sensing and Reliable OutputEquipped with a micro switch and SPDT contact, the level switch delivers dependable signal output for automation systems. Its quick response time of 1 second, low contact resistance, and capability to handle up to 5A at 220V AC make it suitable for fast, precise level monitoring in process industries such as manufacturing and bulk material handling.
FAQs of Level Switch - Rotating Paddle with Single Paddle:
Q: How does the rotating paddle level switch detect material levels in powders and granules?
A: The rotating paddle level switch uses a stainless steel paddle that rotates at 1 RPM inside the storage vessel. When the paddle encounters material such as powder, granules, or bulk solids, its rotation is obstructed, triggering the micro switch to send a signal via the SPDT output contact, indicating the presence or absence of material.
Q: What types of materials and environments is this level switch suitable for?
A: This switch is specially designed for use with powders, granules, and bulk solids. Its aluminum die-cast enclosure and stainless steel paddle offer durability in industrial environments. The device operates reliably within a temperature range of -10C to +80C and features an oil seal shaft for protection against dust and contamination.
Q: Where can the Level Switch be installed, and what mounting options are available?
A: The switch can be installed on storage silos, hoppers, and process vessels where powder or bulk solid level detection is required. It supports flexible mounting options including 1" BSP/NPT threaded connections and flange mounting, facilitating integration into existing industrial systems.
Q: What are the electrical connection and output features of this device?
A: The level switch offers screw terminal electrical connections for secure wiring. It provides a single SPDT (Single Pole Double Throw) output contact, suitable for integration into control panels and automation circuits, handling up to 5A current and rated for 250V AC operation.
Q: How does this device benefit automation in industrial processes?
A: By reliably detecting material levels and providing an automatic switch signal within one second, the rotating paddle level switch enhances process control, reduces manual supervision, and helps prevent overflows or empty vessel scenarios, ensuring consistent production and operational safety.
Q: What is the expected mechanical life and reliability of this product?
A: Designed for demanding applications, the level switch has a mechanical life exceeding 500,000 operations, supported by robust construction and high-quality materials. This ensures long-term performance and minimal maintenance in industrial settings.
