Movement of bulk material is an essential feature in modern industrial processes. The simplest and fastest mode of transportation of such material is to convey them over a moving belt. In this operation the precise weighing of material, as it moves, has assumed a key role in process industries. Hence weigh feeder is a closed loop control system in which a precise control can be had over the flow of materials, which has indicating, totalizing and controlling instruments and circuits. The Weigh Feeder is a custom engineered equipment that finds application in continuous bulk proportioning of solids. This gravimetric feeder is operated by a closed loop control system enabling feeding at a controlled rate and exercises precise control over rate of flow based on a micro controller. The system is capable of accepting external signals from other controllers or from the process computer, depending on the extent of plant instrumentation. These gravimetric feeders are in operation in steel, cement, fertilizer and chemical industries. Each system consists of control and local panels, load cells to measure the instantaneous load, a digital tacho to sense the speed of the belt and a belt feeder conveyor shaft is driven by an AC motor coupled through the gear box.

During the operating life, rotating machines suffers gradual deterioration in their condition and performance due to wear and tear caused by friction between moving parts on the machines. Increase in machine wear is always accompanied by increase in vibration level, which therefore can be used as index of machine condition. If the machine is allowed to run on without corrective measures being taken, vibration levels will increase with time at increasing rate until a stage is reached where the machine fails completely. Monitoring vibration levels on machines such as Fans, Blowers, Pumps, Cooling Towers and Turbines which has to be operated continuously will help to detect increase in vibration levels that are likely to result in machine failure, so that a programmed shut down may be carried out for maintenance. PG701 series of Vibration Transmitters are designed to monitor the vibration levels of the above mentioned rotating machines. The 4-20Ma signal being proportional to the “G” level can be connected directly to the monitoring device such as a PLC, else customized display devices & data logging system, can be provided by us.

Vibration switch does the function of a “watch dog”. Certain amount of vibration is allowed in all the systems / Products. Vibration beyond a limit is catastrophic. This device monitors the vibration level of a machine, system and switches off / alarm, if its vibration goes out of the set limit. This can prevent unscheduled break downs for various heavy machinery such as large motors, gear boxes, cooling tower fans, etc. IPA make Vibration Switch consist of • Accelerometer with a frequency range of 10 Hz to 10 KHz giving an output proportional to acceleration.• A level setting circuit, to set the allowable level of acceleration.• A relay output, when the vibration exceeds the set level. This relay output can give warning or can shut the equipment under consideration.

Tyre inflators, also known as tyre pressure controller are the latest product that we have launched into the market. The systems are very rugged and can handle very hostile environments. The intelligent software ensures that the type of tyre is sensed and the filling happens in the shortest possible time. We have two models to suit your budget and operation which are the wall mounted model and the floor mounted model. these can be customized for special areas like cargo companies, military, police etc where the type of trucks are limited and so the tyre pressure need not be entered into the machine but the type of truck can be selected very easily. Our tyre inflators are ideally suited for fuel filling stations, automobile workshops, tyre shops, bus stations, freighting companies etc.

The system finds extensive use in process industries where monitoring the quantity of materials coming out after completion of a process, especially where materials like powder, granules etc. are used, which comes out at a very low rate, say in the order of under 5T per day or lesser. It is extensively used in the tea industry. The system consists of a buffer hopper and a weigh hopper both provided with gates. The weigh hopper is mounted on loadcells. These loadcells are connected to an indicator where the set value can be entered. As soon as the weight in the weigh hopper achieves the set value, the buffer hopper gate closes and the weigh hopper gate opens to discharge the weighed quantity of material on to a down stream process line. The electronic indicator registers the exact quantity of material. As soon as the weigh hopper becomes empty, the gate closes and the buffer hopper gate opens and the process continues.

IPA make Hopper / Tank / Silo / Bin Weighing Systems offer simple, rugged, accurate and reliable weighing. It ranges from 5 KGs to any Tonne capacity depending upon single loadcell arrangement or multiple loadcells. Single load cell conversion is best suited for Liquid Weighing and in the case where only level indication is required. For Hopper and Silo Weighing System, generally, three loadcell mounting arrangement is ideal. But, for horizontal tank, four loadcell based systems are recommended and for outdoor application, hermetically sealed loadcells are preferred. The Indication for Hopper / Tank and Silo Weighing System can be Level / Weight, which is available either as Wall Mounting Type or Panel Mounting Type. Today we have digital load cells that can make the whole process of installation and trouble shooting easier.

Strain Gauge manufactured by IPA are of foil type  and comes in two different impedances which are 120 Ohms and 350 Ohms.

We also manufacture nickel gauges for : Span compensation Temperature compensation You can have all the accessories like adhesives, cleaning agents, elements for bonding of strain gauges etc. from us.

These metering devices are used to measure the flow rate of very fine particles like fly ash, cement etc. The material flows by gravity through an air slide and flows over a plate which measures the impact which is proportional to the density of the material and the flow rate. The impact on the plate is measured by two high precision loadcells that give a very linear output proportional to the flow rate. The output of the loadcells are fed into the micro controller based flow rate indicator which gives the rate and totalized quantity of material. The solid flow meters can be used in series with a rotary air valve or dozing valve to have a controlled feed of material. These metering devices are extensively used for truck loading and fly ash handling systems. Call us for quality solid flow meters in India.

Loss in-Weigh Feeders operate on the principle of controlled loss-in-weight. The proposed system comprises of a Weigh Hopper, Loadcells, Screw Conveyor with motor and associated control electronics. The Weigh Hopper and Screw Conveyor are mounted on 3 Nos. of Loadcells. The Loadcells are connected to a controller through a junction box.The material from the storage hopper is fed to the weigh hopper, which is controlled by a gate. A small screw feeder is mounted below this weigh hopper. The weigh hopper and screw feeder are mounted on high precision Loadcells and the output of the Loadcells are summed in a junction box and fed as an analog input to the controller. The controller calculates the rate, compares with the set rate and feeds the corresponding 4-20mA signal to the VVVF drive so as to control the speed of the motor of the screw, thereby controlling the rate of discharge

A load cell is  a transducer that converts force or load into usable electrical signal. The primary mechanical element develops a strain as the load cells is loaded and this strain is transferred through the  strain guages that are bonded on to this mechanical element  The output electric signal is in Milli volts. There are normally four strain guages that are bonded in the Wheatstone bridge configuration. Strain Guage based load cells are passive transducer i.e. it does not generate its own signals and have to be excited with an external voltage commonly referred as the excitation voltage. The output of the load cell is proportional to the load and the excitation voltage.  IPA has pioneered the development of loadcells in India. Today we are a leading manufacturer of loadcells. We have our own in-house machining center and have total quality control on the process. We manufacture loadcells from under 1 kg to a 1000Tonnes..
