SITRANS LPS200

SITRANS

LPS200 is a rotary paddle switch for point level detection in bulk solids.

The paddle switch technology detects full, empty or demand

conditions on materials such as grain, feed, cement, plastic granulate and wood

chips. The paddle switch can handle bulk densities as low as 15 g/l (2.19

lb/ft) with the optional hinged vane or 100 g/l (6.25 lb/ft) with the

standard measuring vane.

A low revolution geared motor with slip clutch drives a rotating

measuring vane which senses the presence of material at the mounted level of

the LPS200. As material comes into contact with the rotating paddle, rotation

stops, which changes the microswitch state. When the paddle is no longer

covered by material, rotation resumes and the relay reverts to its normal

condition.

The LPS200 has a rugged design for use in harsh conditions in

the solids industry. The sensitivity of the paddle can be adjusted for varying

material properties like buildup on the vane.

The LPS200 comes in a variety of configurations including

compact, extended and cable extension. It is equipped with a standard vane

which is effective in most applications, but can be configured with a hinged or

rectangular vane for increased sensitivity for light materials.
