Protecting Filter Media & Blowers
In Dust Collection Systems
Monitor Technologies LLC is pleased to announce
the availability of its DustAlarm® broken bag detector. This
instrument is used by dust collection systems in a
wide range of applications to monitor the exhaust of
bag houses and other types of dust collection systems
to identify problems with filter media and other sources
of increases in dust emissions.
The DustAlarm broken bag detector uses time-proven triboelectric technology to
continuously monitor the level of dust emission in dust collection system exhausts. When
an increase in emission level exceeds the user adjusted setting an alarm is triggered
as indicated by the unit's output relay changing state. The DustAlarm is
provided with a unique extended insulator to guard against material build-up
problems, as well as a unique quick-disconnect mounting connection fitting to
facility quick and easy maintenance when needed.
Monitor Technologies LLC is a leading pioneer of level measurement & Monitoring
instrumentation, as well as solids flow monitors, particle emission monitors
and aeration devices for the worldwide powder and bulk solids market. The experience
and market knowledge gained over five decades has earned Monitor a reputation
for providing high quality, reliable product solutions. Monitor is located
in Elburn Illinois.

The
SafePoint rotary paddle level switch with a self-validating design
detects material presence plus continuously monitors its own ability
to function. The analysis includes sensor health and system power
failure, which makes the SafePoint truly “fail-safe”.
The SafePoint incorporates patented use of Hall-Effect technology,
dual outputs to indicate both material presence and unit health,
and microcontroller technology to continuously protect bulk solids
processing and storage from the consequences of unknown sensor
failure by providing immediate indication of a sensor failure
and confirmation of proper operation.
Other practical features of the SafePoint include rugged construction,
motor shut-off when paddle becomes impeded to maximize motor life, twist On/Off
cover for bolt free removal, and local status indicating light (except hazardous
location models)
A practical application for the SafePoint would be to use this "true"
fail-safe product if undetected sensor failure could result in a
catastrophic process problem.
