  • Energy Efficiency: Operates only when the high level is reached, saving energy and costs.
Applications
  • Grains and Cereals: Suitable for oat, soybean, rice, wheat, corn.
  • Animal Food: Applicable for pet, bird, poultry, and cattle feed.
  • Powders: Effective for flour, sugar, cement.
  • Others: Can be used with granules, stones, minerals, sawdust, pellets.
TUBA Float Switches for Narrow-Access Tanks
  • Design: Specifically designed for small capacity and narrow access tanks with openings of 1'' or 1''1/4.
  • Applications: Used for level detection, pump control, and alarm level detection.
  • Cable Quality: Equipped with high-quality, flexible cables resistant to most industrial liquid mixtures.
  • Safety: Use ATEX certified proof floats in hazardous areas.

LEVEL REGULATORS FOR PUMPING STATIONS FOR LEVEL CONTROL OF MULTIPLE PUMPS These omnidirectional floats operate by switching as the water level rises, thus closing or opening a circuit connected to an electrical panel. To perform a pump regulation for instance, the floats will be installed at the high and low required level without any level limit. A 3rd float can be placed higher to connect a sound or light alarm. A second pump can be started by means of another device fitted at the required level, the bottom one being common to all pumps. This is the simplest, the cheapest, and the most commonly...

FLOAT SWITCHES FOR PUMP CONTROL FOR LEVEL CONTROL OF INDIVIDUAL PUMPS The BIP STOP and the AT are omnidirectional float switches designed for pump control (start and stop of pumps), the alarm, the water shortage stop, the filling stop, with one single device. These floats simply open or close the pumps power supply circuit either directly or through a relay. The distance between the float and the cable fastening point (1,50 m. max recommended depending on models) gives the regulation height. The BIP STOP is an economical level switch for use in lightly loaded liquids. It fits small pumps and...

TILT LEVEL SWITCHES FOR SOLIDS FOR BULK SOLIDS LEVEL MEASUREMENT The huge success of these devices is essentially due to the reliability and the simplicity of their installation. To stop the filling of storing areas or silos, three models of SOLIBA are available for applications in both non-hazardous and hazardous areas. The offered prices are notably low. All SOLIBA level switches work by tilting in connection with the filling system circuit. This method is obviously very simple, reliable, and inexpensive. For high-risk areas, our SOLIBA ATEX certified models «P» (dust) and «GP» (Gas and Dust)...

FLOAT SWITCHES FOR NARROW-ACCESS TANKS FOR TANKS & CISTERNS HAVING SMALL-DIAMETER OPENINGS The shape of the TUBA has been studied to allow its installation in small capacity and narrow access tanks and cisterns having narrow openings such as 1’’ or 1’’1/4. Its small diameter enables the passing through the tank intake holes. The TUBA can be equipped with a gland on the electrical cable to ensure watertightness. Generally speaking, they are used for the detection of several levels, for pump control, for alarm level detection, and other applications. Moreover, the Tuba are fitted with extra flexible...
