  • Page 32: Technical Reference

    Technical reference Principle of operation A low revolution gearing motor drives a rotating measuring vane. When material reaches the rotating vane, rotation stops, actuating a switch. When the vane is no longer covered, rotation resumes and the switch reverts to its normal condition. The synchronous induction motor is freely suspended within the housing.
