BinMaster 730-0813, BM-25 Diaphragm Switch for Non-Hazardous Locations
BM-25 Diaphragm Switch: Point level detector for bins and chutes
The BM-25 diaphragm switch is a pressure sensor for high or low-level alerts in bins containing non-hazardous, free-flowing dry materials. It is made durable, high impact nylon plastic that will not corrode and withstands the harshest weather environments.
Use it to reduce overfills and stop wasting valuable grains and fertilizer. With the BM-25 you will know when chutes or conveyors are clogged before making a mess.
How it works:
A diaphragm (or pressure) switch works by activating a sensitive micro-switch when material reaches the level of the switch in the bin. It sends an alert that can be used to start or stop a process or alert to a high, medium, or low-level.
What to use the BM-25 for:
- Point level detection in bins and silos
- Eliminate overflow or maintain a certain level of material
- Detect plugging of chutes or conveyors
- Monitoring levels of dry, free flowing materials
- Material density from 20 lb./cu. ft
- Installation in ordinary locations
- Levels of grain, feed, or fertilizer
The BM-25 is great for farmers, ag cooperatives, or any business storing dry bulk solids!
BinMaster Diaphragm Switches
BinMaster diaphragm switches provides automatic point level indication of free-flowing dry materials and can be installed to detect high, intermediate and low levels. It provides an audible or visual alert when attached to a horn, siren or light. It features simple, rugged construction and long lasting durability. It ican be used in feed, seed, grain, food, rubber, plastics, light powders, granules and many other materials
The BM 65 series diaphragm switch offers UL Class II, Groups E, F & G explosion-proof certification and can be used in environments where there is a risk of combustible dust.
The BM 45 series diaphragm switch is a standard diaphragm switch that does not have explosion-proof certification and is not intended for use in hazardous environments where there is a risk of combustible dust.
The BM 65 series plugged chute detector is a diaphragm switch specifically designed to alert when a chute becomes clogged with material. It offers UL Class II, Groups E, F & G explosion-proof certification and can be used in environments where there is a risk of combustible dust.
BinMaster diaphragm switches offer both internal and external mounting options. Internal mounting does not require a hole be cut in the side of the bin, but does require entering the bin for installation. External mounting requires a hole is cut in the side of the bin, but does not require entering the bin for installation.
To make it adaptable to a variety of materials, BinMaster offers the choice of a standard neoprene diaphragm, a heavy-duty neoprene diaphragm or a heavy-duty silicon diaphragm.
