Robust Design for Industrial Applications

Engineered with a heavy-duty metal enclosure and powder-coated finish, this jam level switch offers exceptional durability in demanding sectors such as coal, cement, and food industries. IP65 ingress protection ensures resistance against dust and jets of water, making it fit for rugged environments.

Versatile Mounting and Reliable Performance

Install the switch easily in chutes and hoppers using either flange or threaded mounting options. Its paddle type sensor delivers high sensitivity, ensuring prompt jam or blockage detection in bulk solids with relative densities from 0.5 to 2.0. The LED indicator facilitates clear operational feedback.

FAQs of Chute Jam Level Switch:

Q: How does the Chute Jam Level Switch detect material blockages?

A: The switch uses a paddle type sensor to identify the presence or absence of material flow. When a blockage is detected in the chute, the movement of the paddle is restricted, activating the SPDT relay output to signal a jam condition.

Q: What are the primary benefits of using this switch in industrial applications?

A: The main advantages include reliable jam detection, reduced downtime, and improved process safety. Its high sensitivity and quick response time enable timely intervention when flow interruptions or blockages occur, leading to smoother operations.

Q: When should the Chute Jam Level Switch be installed?

A: Install the switch during system setups or regular maintenance periods, ideally in locations prone to material flow stoppages within chutes and hoppers to maximize protection against unexpected blockages.

Q: Where can this switch be used effectively?

A: This switch is ideal for use in industrial facilities such as coal, cement, power, and food plantswherever monitoring of bulk solids flow is crucial in chutes and hoppers.

Q: What is the process for connecting the switch to control systems?

A: The switch provides a SPDT relay output compatible with standard control panels, supporting up to 5A at 240V AC. It can be wired through the provided PG11 or customized cable entry points to facilitate straightforward integration.

Q: How does its construction enhance operational reliability?

A: Its robust metal enclosure, powder coating, and IP65 ingress protection shield internal components against dust, water, and mechanical impact. This ensures reliable operation with minimal maintenance over a service life of up to five years or a million cycles.

Q: What types of bulk solids can the switch monitor?

A: It is suitable for detecting jams in bulk solids with relative densities between 0.5 and 2.0, covering a broad range of industrial materials managed in chutes and hoppers.
