Leveltec

Company Overview

Founded in Brazil, Leveltec Instrumentos de Medição has established itself as a key player in level measurement technologies across Latin America. The company designs and produces field-proven level control equipment for industries such as agriculture, mining, food processing, and bulk material handling.

Tilt Switches for Bulk Material Flow

Leveltec’s tilt switches are widely used in conveyor systems to detect flow blockages, chute clogging, and high-level conditions:

• Magnetic Tilt Switches: Designed with mercury-free operation and rugged enclosures for reliable performance in harsh industrial environments.
• Applications: Mounted in chutes, hoppers, and transfer points to detect material presence or blockage.
• ATEX-compliant models: Available for use in hazardous locations with explosive dust or gas atmospheres.

Rotary Paddle Level Indicators

These devices are suitable for fixed-point level detection in silos, bins, and tanks containing powders or granular materials:

• Motor-driven rotating paddles: Stop rotating when material contacts the paddle, triggering a signal to indicate high or low level.
• Used in agricultural grain storage, cement plants, and feed processing systems.
• Options available for horizontal or vertical mounting.

Capacitive and Vibrating Sensors

Leveltec also manufactures non-mechanical level detection sensors for use in fine powder or sticky material environments:

• Capacitive Probes: Detect the dielectric change when material surrounds the probe—ideal for applications where mechanical parts are not suitable.
• Vibrating Rod Sensors: For dusty environments and non-free flowing materials, offering reliable level detection without material buildup.

Applications in Conveyor Systems

Leveltec sensors are integrated into conveyor-based material handling lines to prevent overloading, ensure even flow, and avoid machine damage. Their equipment is compatible with common automation systems and designed for low maintenance and long operational life.

Compliance and Reliability

All Leveltec products are manufactured to meet ISO quality standards and are tested under rigorous industrial conditions. Their focus on simplicity, reliability, and affordability makes them a preferred choice in Latin American markets and beyond.

Conclusion

Leveltec delivers reliable, rugged, and efficient level detection devices for use in conveyor systems, silos, and storage bins. Their tilt switches, rotary indicators, and capacitive sensors enhance safety and control in industrial bulk material handling applications.
