Versatile Paddle ConfigurationsChoose between single, double, or cross paddle designs to maximize sensitivity and adaptability to various solid materials. These configurations help ensure accurate level detection, whether dealing with powders, grains, or granular products, optimizing process safety and efficiency for different industrial applications.
Customizable Shaft Length and ProtectionThe sensor boasts a shaft length that can be tailored up to 2 meters for your specific vessel size. An optional PTFE coating further protects the shaft from corrosion and adherence of sticky substances, leading to longer service life and reduced maintenance requirements in challenging environments.
Robust Construction and Safe OperationBuilt with powder-coated aluminium or stainless steel housing, the rotating paddle level sensor is designed for robustness. Its sealed enclosure provides excellent ingress protection, while optional explosion-proof (EX-D/ATEX) models ensure safe operation in hazardous areas, making it suitable for diverse industrial settings.
FAQs of Rotating Paddle Level Sensor For Solids:
Q: How does the rotating paddle level sensor operate in solid material applications?
A: The paddle rotates continuously inside the silo or hopper. When it encounters solid material, the resistance triggers the sensor to send a high or low level alarm, depending on the set threshold. This helps prevent overfilling or emptying, providing precise level detection.
Q: What paddle configuration should I choose for my application?
A: Selection depends on the materials propertiessingle paddles are ideal for standard powders, double paddles enhance coverage for light bulk materials, and cross paddles are preferred for granular solids requiring greater sensitivity and area coverage.
Q: When should I consider opting for the explosion-proof (EX-D/ATEX) model?
A: Choose the explosion-proof variant if your operation involves flammable or combustible dusts and is in a classified hazardous area. The EX-D/ATEX model is compliant with stringent safety standards to reduce the risk of ignition.
Q: Where can this level sensor be installed?
A: It is suited for installation in silos, bins, and hoppers across industries such as cement, food processing, agriculture, and chemicals. The customizable shaft length and mounting options adapt to different vessel sizes and shapes.
Q: How does the PTFE-coated shaft benefit my operation?
A: The optional PTFE coating enhances the shafts resistance to corrosion and prevents sticking from sticky or aggressive materials, reducing maintenance frequency and extending operational life in demanding environments.
Q: What is the process for customizing shaft length and material options?
A: You simply specify your required shaft length (up to 2 meters) and choose your preferred materialpowder-coated aluminium or stainless steelwhen placing an order. Manufacturers and suppliers in India will tailor the sensor to your specifications.
Q: What advantages does this sensor offer in terms of usage and reliability?
A: Users benefit from dependable high/low level alarms, robust mechanical life exceeding one million operations, and a sealed enclosure for protection against dust and moisture. These features ensure operational reliability and reduce downtime in industrial solid-level monitoring.
