Switch Location

Control Unit Hopper:

 Mounting the Hopper Level Switch in the final Hopper lower than all other hoppers will 

prevent all other Hoppers from running out of feed before the Switch activates to fill the system. 

(See Figure 3.)

Single Switch Application

Place the Hopper Level Switch in the final Hopper 

(Control Unit Hopper)

. Ensure that the Control Pan(s) 

attached to this Hopper are set at a lower level setting than the rest of the Pans on the line to ensure the line 

activates often enough to keep all pans filled.

Multiple Switch Application

Hopper Level Switches may be placed in more than one Hopper to ensure that no Hopper empties before the 

Control Unit Hopper requires feed. All Switches must be wired in parallel so any one switch can start the system.

Note: Multiple Switch systems can pack and trip the Motor if not managed properly. Make Sure the Switch 

in the Control Unit Hopper is lower than the rest of the Switches.

Set the Control Pans (Midline and Endline)

at a lower setting than the rest of the Pans to

ensure that the line activates more often.
