PRODUCT OVERVIEW
This Binswitch Elite version provides a pulsed output proportional to measured capacitance for detection
of bulk granular solids or liquids in tanks, bins, or silos and can be used as a plug or choke detector in
chutes, conveyors and elevator legs. The sensor is fully encapsulated in a 30 mm diameter nylon body
that is corrosion and abrasion resistant, dust-tight and waterproof. The Binswitch Elite BP3 operates by
detecting capacitance change when material is present. Please see Sensor Operation and Calbiration
section for more details.
WARNING
Always lockout and tagout machinery prior to installation

NOTE: custom cable lengths available designated by /xx/BP3 in the part number;
e.g. BSE12V10AI/5/BP3 would have a 5m cable.
INSTALLATION
The Binswitch Elite may be mounted horizontally or vertically. 4B oers BAS3 mounting accessory for
this. The end of the sensor must be at least 25mm (one inch) from the bin wall or other metalwork.
It is important that the Binswitch is not located in the direct ow path of any abrasive material. However,
if the Binswitch must be located in the path of an abrasive material, use in conjunction with the BAS3
(Binswitch Abrasion Shield).
Binswitch Elite mounting method is available gure A below:
PAGE 7
Fig. A -
Cut and drill holes as shown and attach brasion shield (BAS3) using four M6 bolts. Slide Binswitch into
position and secure with a clip and cover (part of the BAS3 assembly).
1. The supply circuit shall be protected by a suitably rated fuse capable of interrupting a short circuit
current of 1500 Amps.
2. The external connections shall meet the requirements for EPL Ga in accordance with EN 60079-26
and EPL Da in accordance with EN 60079-31.
3. Warning: Potential static ignition risk, clean only with a damp cloth.
4. The integral cable shall be terminated in a suitably certied enclosure or in the safe area.
SPECIFIC CONDITIONS OF USE
WIRING DIAGRAMS
All wiring must be In accordance with local and national electrical codes and should be undertaken by an
experienced and qualied electrician.

NOTE
This device is 24VDC supply only.
OPERATION / SENSOR CALIBRATION
Output Specication
The device outputs a pulse train which repeats every 4 seconds. This pulse train is generated by
varying the devices load resistance. Each pulse is 2.4ms in period and the output will range between
1 and 1650 of these pulses over the 4 second total period. A 200ms o period where no pulses are
generated is always maintained between the start of a new sequence and the end of the previous.
LED Behaviour
The LED’s give feedback as to the current output. The green LED is on when the output is pulsing and
is o when the output is low.
The blue LED indicates the device is functioning, ashing in a sequence 3 times every 4 seconds.
Device Conguration
The devices zero oset calibration can be set. This operation tells the device what the default level
of capacitance in a given application is. Ideally this should be carried out after the device has been
tted however it can be carried out beforehand assuming that no additional sources of capacitance
are likely to be in front of the sensor within its intended area of use.
The calibration can be triggered by using the CalMag twin magnetic programmer supplied with the
device and holding it up against both the calibration points on the back. The blue and green LED’s
should come on and after holding the magnets for three seconds the lights will go o indicating a
calibration is complete.

NOTE
If the material being monitored creates dust, you may need to re-calibrate the sensor. Dust build up
on the Binswitch will aect the initial calibration. DO NOT remove the Binswitch and clean o the dust.
Always check that the Binswitch detects material after the sensitivity has been adjusted.
TESTING AND COMMISSIONING
1. Check that the unit is correctly installed (see standard wiring diagram).
2. After going through the zero oset calibration steps, check that the blue LED is 3 times every 4 seconds.
3. Introduce material to the Binswitch. If functioning corretly a variation in the ouput pulse will occur when
material has been detected.
WARNING
If the system does not immediately shutdown as expected or alarm as required, then remove the
machine from service until the problem has been diagnosed and corrected.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
FAULT REMEDY
Unexpected Operation Re-calibrate sensor, if problem continues contact 4B.
False / Inconsistent Readings
1. Check that sensor is not in the direct ow of material, and
remove from ow if necessary.
2. If sensor is coated in dust, re-calibrate by following calibration
instructions.
Sensor Not Detecting Material
1. If monitoring dierent types of materials, calibrate the sensor
sensitivity to the lightest material being monitored.
2. Re-calibrate sensor, if problem continues contact 4B.
