OPERATION AND INSTALLATION At the end of a cable hangs a cone containing a micro switch which operates
when the cone is tilted some 25° in any direction from its normal vertical position.
The unit must be installed a minimum of 250 mm from the silo wall and a minimum
of 300 mm from the centre opening. 40 mm of cable is required from the end of the
protective conduit to the cone. The same requirements hold true for the side mounted switch.
When the silo is filled to the predetermined capacity the switch is activated by the
rising level of the item being stored.
