The new BinMaster BMRX-100 rotary level indicator is an electromechanical device used in solids and powders to prevent bin overfills, dry runs, or to shut off a process. It has no printed circuit board, so it’s impervious to moisture and vibration found in many tough processing environments.

By alerting to full and empty vessel conditions, it prevents waste and saves time when handling bulk materials stored in bins and silos. It’s designed for materials with a bulk density of 2 to more than 100 lb/cu ft for use in ordinary storage and processing conditions.

BinMaster’s engineering team designed the new red enclosure to rotate once installed. This feature makes it easy to ensure conduit entries are always pointed toward the ground, mitigating the risk of moisture damaging internal components. The “conduits down” feature makes proper installation simple and leads to a long service life. Another new rotary feature incorporates a wire guide that ensures wires don’t get stuck as you push them through conduit entries.

The BMRX-100 can be used for process control by wiring it to a light or horn to alert status has changed from uncovered to covered or vice versa. This bin indicator can alert to high levels to prevent spills. Or mount it low in the bin to know when it’s almost empty to prevent batching errors and dry runs. Use it to detect overloaded or empty conveyors, or let you know when a chute gets clogged with material.
