Industry Standard Point Level Indicator Is "Technician Friendly"
Elburn,
IL –When installing, or performing maintenance on, your chosen rotary paddle bin level indicator have you ever had to juggle the cover and several bolts? Now, you don't have to. The "technician friendly" Model KA/KAX from Monitor Technologies incorporates an industry leading screw-on cover, easy access to power and output terminals along with two conduit entrances, and provides reliable operation for high or low level indication of whole or processed grains and feed materials. Using state-of-the-art rotating paddle technology, the KA/KAX employs the industry-first motor shutoff feature that extends the life of the motor beyond that of units that simply stall the motor when material impeded the paddle. That means your KA/KAX from Monitor will last longer.
The combination of being longer lasting and easier to work with means that the Model KA/KAX from Monitor Technologies is the best choice and highest value of rotary paddle bin level indicator on the market today. In addition, its high temperature version will allow for operation with process temperatures up to 750 degrees F. In addition, the Model KAX is suitable form Class 1 and 2 hazardous locations, while the KA is suitable for use in general purpose Ordinary Locations only.

Why Use Solids Flow Monitors?
Assist in detecting problems & increasing automation
From complex automated systems with pneumatic lines
to straight-forward gravity chutes, solids flow monitors can help
to improve process performance. They are effective in detecting flow
problems, as well as enhancing the level of automation at a facility.
Solids flow monitors can assist in detecting problems in flow caused
by equipment failures, plugged lines, leaks, material bridges upstream,
low or no material, etc. They can also be used to add automation
to a process like opening or closing valves, turning a conveyor on
or off, and initiating a process function (spraying of a product
additive).
The Model SFI and SFD-2 line of solids flow detectors from Monitor
Technologies, LLC provide analog or relay outputs to indicate the
flow / no-flow condition of powder and bulk solids materials in chutes
and pneumatic conveying lines. Using microwave Doppler radar technology
these units are non-invasive and extremely reliable and rugged to
withstand the rigors of the installation and your process extremes.
Since there are no moving parts, these monitors can provide dependable,
low-maintenance service for many years.
Solids flow detectors like the Model SFI and SFD-2 can be used
in applications for a
variety of industries including construction materials (cement, sand,
gypsum, etc.), wood chips / sawdust, feed mills & grain processing,
consumer foods (cereal, coffee, sugar, cocoa, powdered milk, barley),
plastics, chemicals & pesticides, pharmaceuticals, and more.
One customer uses the analog signal from a Model SFI unit to monitor
the flow of carbon black in toner cartridge manufacturing to ensure
positive flow before further processing and to detect no-flow and
possible plugged conditions. Another company uses the Model SFD-2
solids flow detector to monitor the flow of coal into the burner
of a coal-fired power plant to detect no-flow conditions and ensure
safety.
Whether a solids flow monitor is used to detect problems, increase
automation or both,
the end result is a substantial long term cost
savings through: eliminating product waste,
cutting “downtime”, reducing employee time spent on watching
the processes or cleaning up spills/messes, increasing product quality
(reducing defective product), and decreasing maintenance time / replacement
costs on other methods of flow detection.
