The information reported here is furnished by the manufacturers; no product endorsement is intended. Level Detector DJ series level detector is used to measure high, intermediate, or low plastic pellet levels in a storage bin or hopper. Detector requires no adjust- ments and has no moving parts, making the unit virtually wear-free. Detector is available in models to handles various bulk solids, including granules, polymers, regrind materials, powders, flakes, and pellets. Detec- tor is approved for Class I, Groups C and D; Class II, Groups E, F, and G; and Class III services. Dynatrol div. Automation Products, Houston, TX 800-231-2062 www.dynatrolusa.com Vibratory Level Sensor DuraVibe model PZP vibratory level sensor for powder and bulk solids is durable and suitable for hazardous locations. Sensor has an intrinsically safe probe; requires no calibration; and is unaffected by varying material compositions, including temperature and moisture. Sensor's diamond-shape probe provides durability and detects very light to heavy materials. Sensor's single-probe design prevents material buildup that causes false signal- ing. Sensor's configurations include pipe extension, cable extension, and high-temperature options. Sensor includes a fail-safe signal in case of power loss and an external status LED for nonhazardous locations. Monitor Technologies, Elburn, IL 800-601-6165 www.monitortech.com Rotary Level Indicator Model CR Roto-Level rotary level indicator has high sensitivity to handle light, fluffy materials as well as normal bulk density materials, such as chemicals, plastics, fertilizers, and aggregates. Unit functions as a high- or low-level indicator to monitor material overflow, empty bins, plugged chute conditions, jammed conveyors, baghouse dust levels, material spill- age, or damaged equipment. Unit's paddle wheel rotates continuously in the absence of material and transfers its torque to one or more micro- switches (which can signal other equipment or an audible or visual alarm) when it meets resistance from accumulated material within the bin.
