INSTALLATION The Binswitch Elite may be mounted horizontally or vertically. 4B offers BAS3 mounting accessory for this. The end of the sensor must be at least 25mm (one inch) from the bin wall or other metalwork. It is important that the Binswitch is not located in the direct flow path of any abrasive material. However, if the Binswitch must be located in the path of an abrasive material, use in conjunction with the BAS3 (Binswitch Abrasion Shield).
WIRING DIAGRAMS All wiring must be In accordance with local and national electrical codes and should be undertaken by an experienced and qualified electrician. NOTE This device is 24VDC supply only. PAGE 8...
OPERATION / SENSOR CALIBRATION Output Specification The device outputs a pulse train which repeats every 4 seconds. This pulse train is generated by varying the devices load resistance. Each pulse is 2.4ms in period and the output will range between 1 and 1650 of these pulses over the 4 second total period.
2. If sensor is coated in dust, re-calibrate by following calibration instructions. 1. If monitoring different types of materials, calibrate the sensor Sensor Not Detecting Material sensitivity to the lightest material being monitored. 2. Re-calibrate sensor, if problem continues contact 4B. BINSWITCH ACCESSORIES BAS3 Nylon Abrasion Shield PAGE 10...
