Self-checking bin monitor.

MONITOR TECHNOLOGIES LLC, ELBURN, ILL. The SafePoint rotary paddle bin monitor detects the presence of materials on a continuous basis and monitors its own operational status. A patent-pending self-checking system mounts a magnet on the shaft and, by monitoring its movement, confirms that the

paddles are rotating. The unit shuts down automatically when rotation is blocked. The housing has a cover that twists on and off, to eliminate bolts. Standard models have a local status light on top.
