    INTRODUCTION The Bin-Master Maxima+ is a rotating paddle style level sensor which provides reliable point level detection for bulk solids, including powder, pellet, and granular materials. The unit's status is continually monitored, and it’s fail- safe circuitry will fall to a "safe" condition in the event of a unit failure or power failure. A visual LED continually indicates the sensor’s status, giving a quick visual monitoring of paddle rotation, covered condition or fault condition.

    MOUNTING PLATES Mounting plates are necessary when a completely assembled unit is to be mounted on the bin wall from the out- side. A 5 1/2” hole is cut in the bin. Six bolt holes are drilled around the hole to match the mounting plate. The plate, with the unit attached, is then bolted in place.

    DC Maxima+ Wiring Figure 7 DC Maxima+ units are available in a 12 to 24 VDC model. 1. Confirm that the DC Maxima+ unit is rated for the DC voltage that is used. 2. Refer the drawing to the right for correct terminal location.
  • Page 8: Fail-Safe Low

    Fail-Safe Low Fail-Safe Low means that the relay will be de-energized when the paddle is rotating (uncovered) and will energize when the paddle is covered. In this mode, a fault condition or a power failure will cause the relay contacts to indicate that the paddle is uncovered whether it is or not.
  • Page 9: Time Delay

    In NRM mode, the Status relay will have a connection between the C and the NO terminal. In a Fault condi- tion there will be a connection between the C and NC terminals when using the standard SPDT relay. The Solid State relays are SPST, they do not use the NC terminal.
