Level switches designed for powder challenges
The CL-10 G Series level detectors (photo) provide for high-level overfill protection or can monitor low and intermediate points. They operate with accurate and consistent results on problem applications that have a tendency to bridge and “pack-out.” G Series detectors handle precipitated and fine, lightweight chemical powders with a bulk density as low as 1 lb/ft3 with great success. They easily manage a variety of heavier bulk solids in the density range of 10 to 15 lb/ft3. The level detectors can operate in dusty environments, and specialized units handle temperatures exceeding 300°F. All level detectors are calibrated at the factory and do not require any field calibration before installation. Approved for Class I, Group D; Class II, Groups E, F & G; and Class III services. The level switch is mounted through a ¾-in. half-coupling at the point of desired level detection, eliminating costly flanges, float chambers or fittings. — Automation Products Inc., Dynatrol Division, Houston
