BELTS FROM SEVERE DAMAGE
Model BA heavy duty conveyor belt alignment control protects
valuable conveyor belts from severe damage due to belt
misalignment or run-off. The Model BA makes sure that the
belts are tracking properly. Prevents costly down time and
unnecessary maintenance expense. Designed especially for
bulk handling conveyor applications, it maintains a safeguard
over equipment and keeps conveyor belts running.
Sometimes called a “side slip switch” or a “belt misalignment
switch,” the Model BA operates on a very simple principal.
Two controls are positioned close to the belt, one on each
side, so that undesirable side to side motion of the belt will
contact a switch roller. The roller “gives” just enough to
actuate the switch. The signal generated by the actuated
switch can be used to take appropriate action to re-align the
then to get out of the way if the belt does run-off, preventing
serious damage to switches and belts. The breakaway mount

2. Base – Cast aluminum standard with 1 ¼” NPT thread on
neck for installation in ½ coupling or standard mounting plate.
Conduit connection is ¾” NPT thread.
3. Motor –

ROTO-LEVEL CONTROL™
Power: 5 Watts, Frequency: 50/60 Hertz,
Speed: 1 RPM, Voltage: 120V or 240V. Other Voltages available.
4. Microswitches – SP/DT, rated at 20 amps. Unit can be
furnished with 1, 2 or 3 switches. All microswitches can be wired
for single throw operation, either normally open or normally
closed as required.
5. Sensitivity Adjustment – Spring tension is adjustable to
product density.
6. Time Delay Adjustment – Variable to prevent false signals.
7. Terminal Block – For CR motor voltage.

The Model CR is designed for use in the aggregate, mining,
chemical, plastics and other bulk-handling industries. It functions
as a perpetual sentinel, monitoring storage bins and eliminating
such nagging problems as material overflow, empty bins, MODELS
abnormally high or low levels, plugged chutes, jammed conveyors
and damaged equipment. SHPG.

OPERATION LBS
Operation of the Model CR is surprisingly simple. A paddle CR-2A 2 Single Pole Double Throw (SP/DT) Microswitches for 120 VAC* 9
sensor is connected to a low torque, 5 watt synchronous motor.
CR-3A 3 Single Pole Double Throw (SP/DT)Microswitches for 120 VAC* 9
This sensor rotates continuously inside the bin at a slow 1 RPM.
When the paddle meets the resistance of accumulated material it CR-2B 2 Single Pole Double Throw (SP/DT) Microswitches for 240 VAC* 9
transfers its torque to actuate one or more microswitches.
CR-3B 3 Single Pole Double Throw (SP/DT) Microswitches for 240 VAC* 9
Now actuated, these switches can be used to control the start-
CR-2C 2 Single Pole Double Throw (SP/DT) Microswitches for 24 VAC/VDC * 9
stop operations of conveyors, elevators, or feeders, and provide
audible or visual warning signals. Actuation continues as long as CRX-2A 2 Single Pole Double Throw (SP/DT) Microswitches for 120 VAC** 9
the paddle motion is restricted. There’s no harm to the monitoring
CRX-3A 3 Single Pole Double Throw (SP/DT) Microswitches for 120 VAC** 9
unit or its motor while in this stalled condition. As soon as bin
material moves away, the paddle turns freely once more and CRX-2B 2 Single Pole Double Throw (SP/DT) Microswitches for 240 VAC** 9
the switches are de-actuated. Model CR units mount at the top CRX-3B 3 Single Pole Double Throw (SP/DT) Microswitches for 240 VAC** 9
or side levels of the bin, or in both positions simultaneously to
automatically control material level. CRD-2A 2 Single Pole Double Throw (SP/DT) Microswitches for 120 VAC*** 9
