Powder & Bulk Solids Applications

The need for more raw materials and the need to improve transportation, storage efficiency, processing and safety has risen and become increasingly important. Aplus Finetek Sensor Inc. manufactures a competitively priced top-quality range of bin level sensors, aerator pads & mounting kits, pneumatic vibrators, safety stop switches and conveyor belt misalignment switches for the bulk solids industry.?

The most efficient way to transport ores materials from one space to storage is by using the Belt Conveyor System which establishes a continuous transportation path using open & closed conveyor belts. ?In the belt conveyor process, the operator's safety is the top priority. The second priority is the care and preservation of raw materials and equipment. Aplus FineTek Sensor offers Belt Misalignment Switch which automatically monitors the conveyor belt system. The SRT is designed for monitoring hazardous conditions of conveyor belt misalignment during normal conveyor operation. The SRT activates two alarm outputs when misalignment is detected, an alarm notification output and safety shutdown output. If the belt deviates, an alarm signal will sound.

?Aplus Finetek Sensor also offers a safety Cable Pull Switch. If the equipment suddenly breaks down and endangers the staff, it can be quickly stopped by pulling the rope switch. The SRS is a safety stop switch designed to provide a switching system to disconnect power to a conveyor system or other process equipment in the case of an emergency condition. The SRS cable stop switches can be placed and mounted on long distances of belt conveyors. A coated steel cable can be used to activate the stop switch from long distances.

In addition, the Motor Speed Monitor can help watch over the conveyor belt system – if the belt goes slack, the idler wears out, or the belt has been punctured by ores, it assists operators in handling and protecting the equipment and materials in time. The EDX speed monitor is used to monitor Low speed and overload protection monitoring of various conveyer systems or networked circuits to form sequential start or stop.

?Aplus FineTek Sensor also offers switches for flow or blockage detection, which effectively control the operation procedure of both upper and lower belt manufacturing processes, thus reducing the energy consumption of the belt conveying equipment and prolonging its lifespan.

In the procedures used for producing cement, steel, concrete, glass, sand and other materials, the raw materials are passed through several stages inside storage barrels. Therefore, a Level Switch is required to provide high, low, and continuous Level Monitoring.

For example, in the cement industry, the SRP Series rotary paddle point level sensor is a point level indicator used for high- and low-level alarm to detect the presence and absence of materials within bins, hoppers and silos containing powder and bulk solids.?

EE310 Electro-Mechanical Level Measuring System features a user-friendly operation with a microprocessor control and an LCM Graphic 128x64 Dot. It is suitable for various industrial applications in the powder & bulk solids, metallurgical industry, mining industry, cement industry, power plant, chemical industry, feed industry, food industry and more with the need of pellet, lump or bulk material monitoring up to 30 meters. Measurements are independent of environment variations such as sound waves, dust, capacitance, humidity and temperature.

The SAL is an advanced RF admittance point level switch, at an affordable price.?The SAL eliminates problems associated with product build-up on the sensor probe and makes setup quick and easy with pushbutton calibration.?Application control is enhanced with the independent adjustable time delay on material presence and material absence detections. The SAL18 series RF admittance level switch features a local LED indication, 20-250VAC/VDC universal power supply, pushbutton calibration, independent adjustable time delay for each material absence and material presence detection and can work with target materials with a dielectric constant down to as low as 1.5.??

The SC35 Tuning Fork Level Sensor is widely used in powder and bulk solids applications in several industries such as Food & Beverage, Pharmaceutical, Feed Mills, Plastic, Rubber, Chemical, Cement, Steel, etc. to detect the minimum and maximum material level over a wide range of different material densities and state in tanks, silos and hoppers.?It can also support the function of detecting underwater sediments. The SC35 features state-of-the-art piezoelectric crystal and electronic technology with self-diagnostics and a test button; it can detect material density as low as 0.624lbs/ft3 (0.01 g/cm3). Other features of the SC35 series include self-diagnostics to detect tuning fork abrasion, a small compact housing IP66/IP67 rated, wide voltage range 20~250VAC/VDC, 50/60Hz, SPDT relay or SSR MOSFET output, and switch delay function. ?Available in standard length, extension probe and cable extended in various probe materials and process connections. ?High temperature version up to 280°C and explosion proof models are also available.

When the grain has suffered with deterioration, corrosion or pest and disease damage, the temperature inside the silo will be increase. If the precise temperature information of the grain can be monitored, an aeration / fan conditioning system can be operated accordingly and more efficiently. Aplus FineTek have developed the world’s first 2 in 1 Level + Temperature cable to provide instant monitoring for grain management. It employs an RS485 communication interface to transmit information to a central control room or SCADA / PLC / HMI via wired or wirelessly.

The Air Hammer and Vibrator prevent sticking. Pneumatic vibrators will shake off the clogged or attached material and eliminate friction during automatic production. Consisting of pneumatic Piston and Rotary styles, the B series pneumatic industrial vibrators are cost-effective and reliable devices for assisting the discharge of bulk solid materials from bins, hoppers and silos. The BAH and BVP units are pneumatic single-shot air hammer (BAH) and direct or air-cushioned low frequency piston type (BVP) industrial vibrators.?The rotary vibrators include the BVK ball vibrator, BVR ring type vibrator and the BVT turbine vibrator.?Rotary pneumatic vibrators offer good energy and quiet operation, especially when compared to other types of pneumatic industrial vibrators.

The Dust Collector prevents dust from leaking out during the pneumatic conveying process of powder. The BRD dust collector valves and the AE series of sequential controllers for use in dust collection systems and baghouses economically assist in improving the maintenance, safety and efficient operation of dust collection systems.??Aplus FineTek Sensor provides highly efficient Dust Collector Diaphragm Valves and Programmable Sequential Controllers which can be equipped with a Dust Monitoring instruments to effectively control the operation procedure of the manufacturing process. Aplus FineTek Sensor provides highly efficient Dust Collector Diaphragm Valves and Programmable Sequential Controllers which can be equipped with a Dust Monitoring instrument. The risk of the cloth bag breaking is detected in advance, the fan is controlled, and maintenance is performed, therefore preventing dust from polluting the factory and the factory from being fined by environmental agencies.

Fine powder material in closed belt conveyors or closed tanks may be flammable and cause explosions. Aplus FineTek Sensor provides internationally certified explosion-proof instrumentation such as cable switches, level switches and level transmitters, ensuring the safety of customers during production.
