ENHANCE SAFETY Eliminate climbing ladders or onto roofs to check bin levels. Reduce the risk of accidents, OSHA citations, workers compensation, and insurance claims due to falls and injuries. For volatile or dusty materials, many devices are offered with explosion-proof certifications.

SAVE TIME Get more work done with fewer people. Eliminate climbing and manage multiple bins at geographically dispersed sites. Automated alerts and “fail-safe" sensor features help control processes and warn of overfills, outages, or equipment failure. Over filling bins ruins materials, wastes time, makes a mess, and causes unnecessary downtime. Level controls streamline material monitoring and process control. Automated alerts prevent overflows, empty conditions, clogged chutes, and jammed conveyors. CONTROL PROCESSES Use sensors to turn off and on processes, monitor loading on conveyor...

Continuous Level Sensors • Inventory monitoring of powders, solids, or liquids • Sensors measure repeatedly or at timed intervals • Real-time reporting for processing and storage operations • Data sent to a console, desktop computer, smartphone, or cloud • Output options to a control room, HMI, or PLC Non-Contact Radar Non-contact, multiple-point measurement across the material surface detects uneven topography, cone up or down, and sidewall buildup. Excelling in high dust, this acoustics-based sensor provides highly accurate volume and a unique 3D visual. Reliable and precise in high dust,...

Guided Wave Radar These non-contact sensors emit a sound above the human hearing range, then convert it to a distance using time of flight. Ideal for harsh environments where temperatures vary, this sensor is appropriate for liquid levels at ranges from .4 to 60 feet. Measuring a single point in a tight 1° beam, laser is suitable for level control in low-dust environments, narrow vessels, or constrained spaces with structure or walls to be avoided. Battery-powered and wired models offer flexible installation. A stainless steel cable is suspended into the vessel and utilizes time domain...

SmartBob II The SmartBob II is the backbone of a proven, reliable level measurement system for solids, powders, liquids, or slurries using cable-based, dust-penetrating sensor technology. It takes measurements at predefined time intervals or on demand. When combined with the Binventory ® software program installed on a personal computer, the BinView® web app, or remote push-button control consoles, SmartBob II offers the ability to manage from one up to 120 bins of heights up to 150 feet. Measuring Principle: Cable Power: 115/230 VAC 50/60 Hz Output: RS-485/Modbus/Analog Ambient...

BinMaster’s GWR-2000 guided microwave level transmitter utilizes time domain reflectometry (TDR) along a cable or rod to continuously measure the distance and level of powders or solids in bins, tanks, and silos. It features a very small upper dead zone and is accurate in low dielectric materials down to 1.3. Virtually maintenance free, it performs in high dust and is immune to condensation. There are 4-20 mA and Modbus RTU communication options, making it compatible with an HMI or PLC, as well as Binventory® PC software or BinView® cloud-based monitoring. Measuring Principle: Time Domain...

Point Level Sensors • Indicate when material levels reach a fixed point • Used for high-, mid- and low-level detection • Applied in free-flowing powders and bulk solids • Mount on side, top, or in cone of vessels • Alert via a light, horn, or annunciator panel Capacitance Probe Also called a paddle-wheel level switch, the rotary is a common and versatile device used for inventory monitoring, level alerts, and process control. Standard and fail-safe models can be configured with a wide variety of extensions, paddles, and mounting plates. PROCAP offers a wide variety of power pacs, types, and...

Tilt Switch Pressure SwitchAnnunciator Panel Rising levels of powders or solids activate an alert when the device is tilted 15 degrees. These mercury-free sensors are available for fixed or hanging mounting and can be used in vessels or chutes, or over conveyors, open pits, or piles. A diaphragm or pressure switch triggers an alarm state when material presses on a sensitive microswitch. Also used for plugged chute detection, it is available for internal or external mounting, various diaphragm materials, and optional hazardous location approvals. The annunciator panel can be used with any...

BMRX The BRMX rotary paddle bin level indicator provides reliable point level detection and measurement of dry bulk solids in bins, tanks, silos, hoppers, and material conveyors. Mounted on the top or side of a vessel, the BMRX alerts operators when bins are full or empty—normally using a horn or light. It can be used in powders or solids with a bulk density from 2 to over 100 lb./cu. ft. The BMRX features “de-energized” operation of the motor which shuts the motor down when material is present, saving energy costs and prolonging the motor life. Measuring Principle: Rotary Ambient/Operating...

BM65 The BM65 diaphragm switch for hazardous locations can be used in environments where there is a risk of combustible dust. It provides automatic point level indication of free-flowing dry materials to detect high, intermediate, and low levels. The BM65 offers both internal and external mounting options and an assortment of diaphragm materials making it adaptable to a variety of solids. Measuring Principle: Pressure Ambient/Operating Temperature: -40°F to +300°F (-40°C to +149°C) Approvals/Certifications: CSA/ US Class II, Groups E, F & G Enclosure Material: Die cast aluminum Material...

PROCAP I & II FL The PROCAP I-FL and II FL are designed for “no probe intrusion” in space-constrained areas or applications where material flow or bridging may damage a standard probe. FL models can be mounted on a bin wall, conveyor housing, or a chute. The face of the bottom of the FL serves as the capacitance sensor. The PROCAP I-FL and II-FL have all the same benefits of the PROCAP I and II and are appropriate for use in a wide variety of powders, solids, liquids, or slurries. Measuring Principle: Capacitance Ambient/Operating Temperature: PROCAP I: -20 to +145°F (-28 to +62°C), PROCAP...
