HAWK’s Paddle Switch Level Measurement
HAWK’s Rotary Paddle Switches are used as a full, demand, or empty detector in storage silos or process vessels and are suitable for use in almost all solid applications. They are a reliable and maintenance-free limit switch with international approvals for use in hazardous areas.
The RS4000 Rotary Paddle Switch slowly rotates until the measuring vane is covered by bulk materials, causing it to stop rotating. The reaction torque thus generated is converted into an electrical signal. The RS4000 is typpically used for safe and multi-purpose solid level monitoring in all types of containers and silos, it can be used with all bulk materials with a density from starting 100g/l (> 6 lb/ft_).
The ROTONIVO is an electromechanical Level limit switch and is used for level monitoring of bulk goods. The units can be delivered with a wide range of Ex-approvals for use in Hazardous Areas. They can be equipped for process over- and lowpressure and also for very high or low process temperatures.
Rotonivo paddle switches can be used as full, demand or empty detectors in bulk good silos. They are suitable for applications in a wide variety of materials. Rotonivo switches are available with international certificates for applications in hazardous locations (gas and dust).
