Design & Functionality
The PFG86 sensor combines rugged design with precision engineering. Its stainless steel shaft and life-lubricated bearings guarantee minimal maintenance. The polyamide or stainless steel paddles provide accurate detection of materials from low to high density. Its compact design allows for seamless installation in silos and bins of all sizes.
Total Crossed Beams
The device ensures total coverage of the material surface, detecting both full and empty states efficiently. Its broad paddle range enables detection of fine powders and coarse granules alike.
Beam Pitch Options
Various paddle configurations are available to optimize performance for specific bulk material types. This flexibility ensures precise level monitoring in industrial processes.
Intrinsic Synchronism
The PFG86 operates at 1 turn per minute, synchronizing reliably with material flow and minimizing wear. This guarantees accurate readings even in high-capacity storage units.
Operational Advantages
Operators benefit from reduced downtime, improved safety, and enhanced material management. Its IP65 rating protects against dust and water jets, making it suitable for demanding environments. With low power consumption and high contact capacity, the PFG86 ensures efficiency and reliability across all industrial applications.
