Pacific Sensor Technologies (PST) says the compact mini rotary level control from Bin Control is designed for controlling material levels in smaller bins and hoppers.

According to PST, the new Mini-Rotary is used for bins and hoppers that contain plastics, food, seed, chemicals and other powder and bulk solid materials. The small units design allows for use of a level sensor where other types of equipment simply will not fit.

PST says in principle, a slow speed motor rotates the paddle when no material is present. As such, when the bin is emptied, the paddle again begins to rotate, alerting the operator that a refill is necessary

The Mini-Rotary is said to have few moving parts and is simple to install on the side or top of a bin. It is appropriate for a variety of light to heavy materials, allowing for motor torque sensitivity to be easily adjusted.

Pacific Sensor Technologies says a four-vane polycarbonate paddle is appropriate for light to medium density materials, while a bayonet style polycarbonate paddle is easy insert and can be used with higher density materials.
