Mercury-Free Tilt Switch by BinMaster
Featured Product from BinMaster, Inc.
BinMaster's BM-TSM tilt switch mounts on the top of a bin. It activates an alarm when material rises and tilts the switching mechanism 15° or more.
The shaft of the tilt switch is custom-made in lengths from one foot up to eight feet in length, dependent upon the distance from the top of the bin an alert should be activated.
The BM-TSM is available with either a paddle or sphere mounted at the end of the shaft. It can be used in materials with a bulk density of at least 15 pounds per cubic foot.
This unique tilt switch can be used as an alternative to a top-mounted rotary level indicator and is suitable for a wide range of solid materials in most any industry.
Its simple, mechanical design is rugged and operates reliably in a wide range of temperatures; it is also tough enough to withstand the harshness of granules and lump solid materials. The protective boot protects the tilt mechanism and ensures long operational life.
The BM-TSM is easy to install through a 1-1/4" NPT process connection on the roof of the bin and sends an alert status to a horn, light or control panel.
