Series 300 Paddle
Switches
Description
The Pulsarpoint 300 series is a range of rotating paddle level switches,
for level measurement of bulk solids.
The paddle's rotation is interrupted when
material reaches the paddle, causing a clutch to disengage the motor.
This in turn actuates a relay allowing an alarm signal to be switched.
This may be used to signify a material
level as being high, intermediate or low depending on configuration
chosen.
Application
Effective management of material storage and flow prevents overflows,
empty vessels, clogged or blocked chutes or conveyors. Costly or
dangerous spillage, material waste or unnecessary maintenance may
therefore be avoided.
The Pulsarpoint 300 series has been designed to prevent these avoidable
and expensive occurrences interrupting your business.
Typical applications may be found in the
food, animal feed, pharmaceutical, chemical, plastics, quarrying, power
generation, cement and other industries employing bulk solids material
storage or conveying.
Suitable products for monitoring include plaster, cement, chalk, lime,
granules, wood chips, cereals cocoa, sugar, animal feeds, washing
powders or plastic powders and pellets.
Pulsarpoint 300
The 300 utilises a polycarbonate housing, sealed to IP 65. The process
connection is of the same material, with a polypropylene paddle.
Pulsarpoint 310
The 310 has a diecast housing, with process connection in aluminium,
galvanised or stainless steel. Various paddle materials, along with
options on seals for aggressive and high temp <220C applications are
available.
Options
Both switches are available with solid or cable extension, allowing a
wide range of alarm points to be catered for with materials to suit the
application, as well as high temperature versions for applications up to
220' C, such as is required in electrostatic precipitator hopper level
measurement.
