The Chute Jam Level Switch is a cost-effective and dependable device designed to detect material blockages in chutes and hoppers. It features a durable rubber diaphragm that responds to material buildup by deforming under pressure. As the blockage increases, the diaphragm activates the switch mechanism, providing an immediate alert to prevent system downtime.
This Chute Jam Level Switch is ideal for industries handling bulk solids, including mining, cement, and agricultural processing. It ensures efficient operation by detecting jams early, reducing maintenance costs, and improving overall system reliability. The Chute Jam Level Switch is particularly effective in harsh environments where dust, moisture, and heavy materials can impact traditional sensors.
With its rugged construction and accurate level detection, the Chute Jam Level Switch is the perfect solution for optimizing material flow and preventing costly disruptions in industrial processes.

The Chute Jam Level Switch operates on the principle of pressure sensing using a flexible diaphragm. As bulk materials move through a chute, any obstruction or buildup exerts pressure on the diaphragm. When the material accumulation reaches a critical level, the diaphragm deforms, triggering the internal switch mechanism.
This mechanical action either opens or closes an electrical circuit, sending an alert signal to indicate a jam or blockage. The Chute Jam Level Switch can be configured to activate at predefined material levels, ensuring prompt detection and preventing downtime.
Designed with durability in mind, the Chute Jam Level Switch is ideal for monitoring bulk solids in chutes, hoppers, and conveyors across industries such as mining, food processing, and cement manufacturing. Its reliable operation enhances system efficiency by preventing material overflow, reducing maintenance efforts, and ensuring uninterrupted flow in industrial processes.
