RG4 High Temp Level Sensor (+200°C) is ATEX Zone 20/21 approved, easy to install, versatile, and ensures safety in explosive dust environments. The RG Series Level Sensors have been designed to indicate the presence or absence of bulk materials such as grains, pellets, chemicals, wood chips and other powders. The detection of material is achieved by a rotating paddle. If material impedes the rotation of the paddle, the motor topples of its axis and triggers an alarm. The RG Series has a variety of compatible paddles which offer the ability to detect a wide range of products. Specifications * Operating Temp +200°C. * ATEX approved for Zone 20/21 * Easy to install. Specific tools or settings are not required. * Extremely versatile. * Provides the highest standard of safety in the presence of potentially explosive dusts/powders. * Probe can be adapted to the material monitored thanks to the wide range of paddles available.

4B Group’s new IE-GuardFlex for DHMS uses advanced Ethernet to connect and monitor sensors across machines, initiating shutdowns when risks are detected. 4B Group proudly announces the launch of their Distributed Hazard Monitoring Solution (DHMS) featuring the IE-GuardFlex. Leveraging advanced industrial Ethernet technology, the IE-GuardFlex control unit seamlessly connects and monitors sensors across multiple machines using 4B’s state-of-the-art IE-Node technology. This robust system can be configured for multiple machines, IE-Nodes, and sensors, directly interfacing with machine control centres to initiate shutdowns upon detecting potential risks. Ideal for central control rooms and ”non-hazardous areas,” the IE-GuardFlex connects to IE-Nodes in ”at-risk zones” via industrial CAT6 Ethernet cables. Monitored machinery includes bucket elevators, enclosed and open conveyors, chain conveyors, rollers, and more. ATEX-certified sensors connected to local IE-Nodes monitor critical conditions like belt slip (SlipSwitch, Milli-Speed), belt misalignment (TouchSwitch, Bulldog), bearing temperatures (ADB, Milli-Temp),

4B has introduced the Encoder-Flex 1024, designed to monitor the position of rack and pinion gates, as well as shaft speed and angular position of distributors. 4B Group has introduced the Encoder-Flex 1024, designed to monitor the position of rack and pinion gates, as well as shaft speed and angular position of distributors. The new, ATEX-approved Encoder-Flex 1024 is changing the way slide gates are monitored. This compact rotary shaft encoder uses advanced technology to deliver a precise position from 0 to 100%. With a compact, sleek design, the Encoder-Flex 1024 removes the bulkiness associated with traditional shaft encoders and adds the benefit of easy calibration. There is no need to open up the unit; simply apply an external magnet briefly to calibrate. Providing even more flexibility, resolution can be programmed for 1 to 1024 pulses per rotation. All electronics on the Encoder-Flex 1024 are housed in a sealed stainless steel enclosure and are encapsulated in epoxy, protecting the device from moisture and the elements and providing maximum reliability in the field. In addition, the Encoder-Flex 1024 provides

4B’s Vibmil Vibration Sensor (VIBMIL) is designed for continuous monitoring of vibration levels in industrial environments. 4B’s Vibmil Vibration Sensor (VIBMIL) is designed for continuous monitoring of vibration levels in industrial environments. A current loop-powered accelerometer, VIBMIL delivers precise vibration RMS velocity readings through a 4-20 mA output. Encased in a robust stainless-steel enclosure with a 3/4” NPT thread for conduit connection, VIBMIL assures durability in the harshest industrial conditions. For added versatility, it can be supplied with optional inbuilt NTC or PT100 temperature sensors. Designed with ease of use in mind, the VIBMIL comes equipped with a female 1/4”-28 UNF mounting thread, allowing secure attachment using screws, studs, or mounting studs. Optional converters to M8 and M6 male threads provide additional flexibility. Integration into control systems is seamless, thanks to the 2-wire, loop-powered accelerometer, providing linearized output from 4 – 20mA, proportional to the sensor’s measuring range. The VIBMIL Vibration Sensor

Easy to install, adaptable, versatile The RG Series Level Sensors have been designed to indicate the presence or absence of bulk materials such as grains, pellets, chemicals, wood chips and other powders. The detection of material is achieved by a rotating paddle. If material impedes the rotation of the paddle, the motor topples of its axis and triggers an alarm. The RG Series has a variety of compatible paddles which offer the ability to detect a wide range of products. The paddles are interchangeable, making the RG Sensors adaptable to different densities of measured materials. The sensors are customizable not only with paddles, but also with extensions and voltages. An easy to install instrument, the RG Series sensors do not require any calibration, maintenance or specific tool for their installation. The sensors are extremely versatile, and can be installed on tanks, hoppers, on walls or roofs of silos, in a vertical, horizontal or oblique position. Durable and reliable, the RG Series Sensors

Elevator design for recycled asphalt planings (RAP). Recommending speed, power, shaft & casing sizes, and component specs (SPS steel buckets & NBR belting) Challenge Asphalt is made from a mixture of aggregates, binder and filler, and is commonly used in constructing and maintaining roads surfaces. When the surface layer of tarmacked areas is removed, the resulting waste material known as planings, can be recycled and reused. BG Europa Ltd approached 4B Braime requesting technical advice on the manufacture of a new bucket & belt elevator to be installed at an Asphalt plant in South Wales. Although familiar with bucket & chain elevators, the customer had no technical experience with buckets & belts so requested the expertise of 4B Engineers. The bucket elevator would elevate RAP (Recycled Asphalt Planings), and use a belt instead of chain, and standard 4B pressed buckets instead of fabricated buckets commonly used in the construction industry. 4B Braime were asked to provide a design proposal detailing suitable speed, power requirements, shaft & casing sizes, and component specifications to achieve the desired
