Bindicator Model A Bin-Dicator
The original electromechanical point level switch, Bin-Dicator® diaphragm-type level controls were the first to enjoy general usage in the industry. Bin-Dicator® controls eliminate bin overflow, empty bins, clogged conveyors, choked elevators and resulting damage and waste.
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. De-actuation or switch release is a result of the bulk material clearing away from the diaphragm.
Rugged Construction:
- Heavy-duty design with a 10 ¼” diameter housing suggests durability and suitability for demanding industrial environments.
- Explosion-proof option enhances safety in hazardous areas.
Versatility:
- 7 diaphragm material options provide flexibility for various process conditions (temperature, corrosion, moisture).
- Can be mounted outside the bin, potentially reducing installation costs and simplifying maintenance.
Simple Operation and Maintenance:
- Simple, mechanical mechanism with no external power required.
- Readily accessible for inspection and maintenance, minimizing downtime.
Reliable Performance:
- SPDT switch provides a reliable signal for controlling downstream equipment.
Applications:
The Roto-Bin-Dicator Model A is likely suitable for a wide range of applications involving dry bulk materials, including:
- Food Processing: Grain silos, flour bins, etc.
- Chemical Processing: Powder handling, bulk solids storage.
- Mining: Ore handling, stockpiles.
- Agriculture: Feed mills, grain storage.
Features
- 10-1/4" diameter
- Explosion proof model available
- 7 diaphragm material options
- Heavy duty
