Low-cost dust monitor for broken bag detection

sintrol dust monitor s301

On/Off Switch for filter leak detection

With two independent alarm relays, Sintrol’s S301 allows the end user to identify bag leaks and deterioration of filters.  Using our electric induction measurement principle, the dust monitor can be easily set up within 30 minutes of installation and gives plant operators quick notification of breaches in the filtration system.

Sintrol dust monitor allows end users to manually adjust alert and alarm level signals to tailor to their end needs.  Different probe lengths and coatings give flexibility to meet a variety of applications.

ATEX Models

  • Certified for ATEX Zone 20, 21 or 22
  • Approved to Category II 1/2 for Gas and Dust
  • IP65 Enclosure, Custom Designed ● Certification Type: II 1/2 GD EEx ia IIC, T6, IP65, 85°C
  • Utilizing SINTROL’s Advanced Inductive Electrification Technology

The ATEX directive covers health and safety of workers potentially at risk from exposure to explosive environments. This directive classifies areas into Zone 0, 1, 2 for gas and 20, 21 or 22 for dust and guides plant operators to install the appropriate ATEX certified systems. Products are required to be categorized by the level of protection that they offer against the risk of them becoming a potential source of ignition in an explosive atmosphere. The equipment conformity categories are 1, 2 & 3.
