Product catalog summary
Product Overview: The RG4 Rotary Level Indicator is designed for detecting the presence or absence of bulk materials such as grains, pellets, chemicals, and wood chips. It is suitable for use in hoppers and silos and can be mounted on the top or side.
Specifications: The RG4 is approved for use in explosive atmospheres (ATEX zones 20 and 21 for dust). It features a rotating paddle that triggers an alarm when material impedes its rotation. The device is easy to install, requires no calibration or maintenance, and is adaptable to different material densities with interchangeable paddles. It operates within a temperature range of -20°C to +70°C for standard versions and up to +200°C for high-temperature versions. The enclosure is rated IP65 for protection.
Features: The RG4 is versatile, customizable, and durable, with options for push-fit or screw terminals. It is constructed with an aluminum casing and a stainless steel shaft on ball bearings.
Part Numbers and Options: The RG4 series includes various part numbers for different power supplies and terminal types. High-temperature versions are available by adding '-HT' to the part code. Paddle options include different sizes and materials, such as Nylon6 and 304 Stainless Steel, to accommodate various material densities. Extension rods and flanges are available in different materials and sizes to suit installation needs.
Technical Specifications: The RG4 operates on 110/240 VAC or 24 VDC power supplies, with a change-over relay output rated at 5A at 250VAC. It features a die-cast aluminum casing and a conduit entry tapped at ø 1/2” BSPP.
