About paddle switch level measurement

The universally usable paddle point level switch Soliswitch is deployed as a full, empty and requirement alarm in silos with bulk solids. Check out the range of Soliswitch devices for bulk solid applications and click on the button below.

Different variants of paddle switches for point level detection in bulk materials are available. The robust polymer housing and compact design makes it an ideal sensor for full, empty and demand alarm in applications with bulk solids. The optimized materials make the unit outstandingly robust and therefore suitable for use in dust explosive areas. It is ideal for flowing bulk solids up to a grain size of 50mm (2”).

Paddle switch measurement: Measuring Principle

The rotation of the paddle is stopped as it is covered by solids. This actuates a relay.

Benefits

  • Measuring principle for simple applications
  • No calibration required
