What is a Bindicator used for?
The Bindicator® Yo-YoTM is a weight and cable bin level sensor specifically designed for continuous level measurement of dry bulk solids inventory.
What is Roto bin?
ROTO-BIN-DICATOR® The Roto-Bin-Dicator is a rotating paddle type, bulk material level sensor offered with a wide variety of paddle options for unequaled application versatility. It is easy to install and requires no special tools or calibrations.
How does a point level sensor work?
These point level switches use electronic vibratory technology to sense the material. Vibrating element level sensors vibrate until they come into contact with material, causing an output relay change (alarm). These products work best in lightweight and free flowing materials.
What is a continuous level sensor?
Continuous level sensors are transmitters that measure liquids within a specified range and determine the exact amount of liquid within a confined area providing a continuous analog output to your panel or meter.
What is the difference between level switch and level transmitter?
Measurement: A level transmitter is perfect for a condition where the exact level of fluid needs to be measured. This is usually preferred for applications where precise measurement becomes a necessity. A level switch is an ideal choice for applications where extreme low or high levels need to be measured.
Which level switches is non power?
Float and Displacer operated level switches are considered mechanical devices because of their moving parts, the buoyancy principle of operation and because they don’t require a power supply.
How many types of level switches are there?
Level switches fall into two categories, which are point and continuous. Point level switches include optical, horizontal float, vertical, and ultrasonic. Continuous level switches include submersible, ultrasonic, and capacitive.
What is level switch used for?
A level switch is a sensor that detects the presence of liquids, powder, or granulated materials at a specific location. (It is also referred to as level sensor) For example, when a tank is supplied with liquid, it overflow.In order to prevent overflows, a level switch is installed near the top of the tank.
Is level switch is analog or digital?
Level switches can have displays that are analog, digital or video displays. Control for the devices can be analog with switches, dials and potentiometers; digital with menus, keypads and buttons; or controlled by a computer.
Which sensor is used to detect water?
Hydrostatic pressure level sensors are submersible sensors used for measuring the level of liquids (including corrosive liquids) in deep tanks or water in reservoirs.
What is a non contact bin-dicator?
Non-Contact Liquid Level Bin-Dicator® control is a low cost, floatless, pressure sensitive, diaphragm actuated switch that automates the filling and emptying of containers. The actuated switch requires 5” of head pressure on the riser for actuation.
Why choose bindicator® bin level indicators?
Since 1936, our bin level indicators have been preventing overflow spills, controlling surge bins, detecting plugged chutes and providing on/off control of pumps and conveyors in the dry bulk industry. Bindicator® products are designed and manufactured with the end user in mind, so installation and calibration will be straightforward and simple.
What is bin-dicator® control?
The Bin-Dicator® control is a pressure actuated switch for use with free flowing bulk materials at atmospheric pressures. Actuation of the switch is the result of pressure exerted by the bulk material against the diaphragm assembly.
