Pendulum level switch for solids
max. 2 m | PLS
KOBOLD INSTRUMENTATION
The KOBOLD pendulum level monitors model PLS serve for
the monitoring of the maximum fill level of bulk solids in stor-
age tanks and silos. The monitor is made out of two parts:
the aluminium connection housing with the microswitch and
the connection terminals and the pendulum rod with the
measuring cone.
The monitor is installed vertically on the side of the filling
piece. When a silo is filled with bulk solids, a cone is cre-
ated which causes the measuring cone of the level monitor to
swing to the side as the fill level increases. This swing move-
ment is transferred from the pendulum rod to the microswitch
using magnetic force, and without actual contact. The instru-
ments are also available with an ATEX certificate (112 D Zone
20/21/22) for use in areas where there is a risk of dust explo-
sions.
