Precautions for installation of paddle level switch

Thread Content

The paddle level switch is an on-site control device used to detect the level height of solid materials (powder, granules). As a rotary on-site level switch, its unique sealing design, super overload protection capability and simple installation method make it widely used in chemical, plastic, construction, feed, food, pharmaceutical, fertilizer and other industries. So, what should we pay attention to when installing the rotary paddle level switch on the equipment? Generally speaking, the following matters should be paid attention to when installing the paddle level switch:: (1) Before installation, please confirm whether the power supply voltage of the paddle level switch is consistent with the voltage on the signboard. (2) Before installation, confirm the density of the material to be measured and select the best blade shape and size. Generally, the higher the density, the smaller the blades. (3) Before installation, confirm whether it is installed horizontally or vertically. If it is installed horizontally, the blades need to be installed downward at an angle of 10 to 20° to the horizontal line to reduce the impact of the material. ； If it is installed vertically, the cable inlet of the junction box should face vertically downward, the cable fixing nut must be locked, and a rainproof cover can be added if possible. Installation diagram of the paddle level switch (4) should be avoided at the material inlet. When unavoidable, a protective baffle can be installed 200mm above the material level switch to protect the blades from material impact. (5) When installing the product, please do not knock the transmission parts and blade parts to avoid unnecessary damage. (6) Finally, the paddle level switch should be reliably grounded.
