BinMaster BMRX-300.D5LAA Offers

Fail-safe operation, self-diagnostics, and immediate and corrective response to failures distinguish the BMRX-300 as the best rotary level indicator for process control. An integrated, highly-visible LED indicator light transitions between green and red to signal fault, covered, or rotating status conditions. By alerting to full and empty vessel conditions, the BMRX-300 prevents waste and saves time when handling free-flowing bulk solids such as grains, granules, pellets, and powders, stored in bins and silos. It is designed for materials with a bulk density of 2 pounds to over 100 pounds per cubic foot and is approved for level indication use in hazardous locations.

An onboard PCB allows a notification light, a status indication feature, and extra switching options like DPDT relays to be added. A DPDT relay allows the user to set up two switching outputs, controlling two separate circuits or a separate location for each circuit. These relay outputs are designed to be “fail-safe” in case of power failure, defaulting to the output deemed “safe” for a high-level or low-level indicator application. The BMRX-300 rotary level indicator power pack features a screw-off cover, 3/4" (1.91 cm) NPT dual conduit entries, and an FDA-recognized powder coat finish. Once installed, the enclosure can be rotated 360°.

This unique feature makes it easy to ensure conduit entries are always pointed toward the ground, mitigating the risk of moisture damaging internal components. New wire guides also ensure wires don’t get stuck as you push them through conduit entries. BinMaster coupling mounting plates allow the rotary to be top or side-mounted, tailored to specific point-level detection needs, whether vertical, horizontal, or angled installations. The BMRX-300 rotary adapts to light, medium, and heavy-weight bulk material with a wide selection of paddle options.

Features

• Hazardous location approvals: CSA/US Class II, Groups E, F & G
• Prominent LED indicator light visually alerts to fault, covered, or rotating status conditions and is visible from a distance of up to 100' (30 m)
• LED light is integrated into the lid of the rotary, eliminating the need for additional wiring to an external light source
• DPDT relay enables users to configure two switching outputs, control two separate circuits or two location options for each circuit
• Relay outputs are designed to be “fail safe” in case of power failure; providing both fail-safe high and fail-safe low switching output
• Fail-safe operation also includes self-diagnostics and immediate corrective responses to failures
• When the paddle is covered and stops turning, the motor de-energizes, this protects the motor from unnecessary wear-and-tear
• Enclosure rotates to direct conduit entries downward upon installation, to safeguard internal components from moisture and prolong service life

Applications

• Level detection: Point level detection of bulk solids
• Process control: High, demand, and empty level indication
• Overflow prevention: High level alerts to avoid overfilling
• Conveyor control: Prevent overloading or empty conditions
• Plugged chutes: Detect when chutes are clogged with materials
• Material outages: Alerts eliminate dry runs and bad batching
