A rotary paddle switch for bulk storage
The BMR-100 rotary sensor (photo) offers simple, electromechanical measurement for ordinary storage and processing operations. It is generally wired to a light or horn to alert to high or empty levels. The level switch works with solid materials with a bulk density of 2 to more than 100 lb/ft3. This versatile level indicator is offered with a wide range of accessories. There are 19 different paddles for light, medium and heavy bulk-solid materials. Collapsible paddles are convenient for installation without entering the vessel. Point-level alarm panels display vessel level conditions via a blinking light and an audible alarm with up to 24-level indicator stations. — BinMaster, Lincoln, Neb.
