Bulk Pro Tripper Position Switches

Bulk Pro Tripper Position Switches are heavy duty limit switches used to aid in positioning of the tripper on a conveyor with multiple discharge points or chutes. Output contacts control two separate circuits – one for an alarm, the other for machinery shutdown. Tripper Position Switches are relatively inexpensive and save time, money, and labor associated with bulk material transfer. They can be used in a variety of industrial environments. They help assure safe operation and automation of the equipment in your plant.

Description

Bulk Pro Tripper Position Switches are commonly found on tripper floors to annunciate the position of the tripper car, ensuring material is being unloaded in the correct spot. Once the roller actuator arm is moved from its normal position, two micro switches are tripped – one sends an alarm to the control system or operator, the other shuts off the machinery.
