NOTE
If the material being monitored creates dust, you may need to re-calibrate the sensor. Dust build up
on the Binswitch will affect the initial calibration.
DO NOT
remove the Binswitch and clean off 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 offset 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.

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