Product Description
FULL OR LOW, LEVALERT LETS YOU KNOW.
Eliminate the danger and uncertainty of checking bin levels. The LevALERT Bin Level Indicator offers a brilliantly simple, robust, and highly visible way to monitor the contents of your grain, feed, or other granular material storage bins – all safely from ground level. With just a quick look, day or night, you gain immediate knowledge of your material levels, preventing overfills, optimizing logistics, and most importantly, keeping personnel safe.
How it Works: Simple, Reliable, Automatic
The LevALERT's genius lies in its simplicity. It operates entirely mechanically, requiring no power source. When material inside the bin is below the indicator, it shows black. When the material reaches or covers the indicator, it rotates to display a highly visible yellow. As the material level recedes, it automatically resets to black. It’s foolproof monitoring for critical inventory levels.
Built for the Toughest Conditions
Crafted from premium, industrial-grade materials, the LevALERT is designed to withstand harsh agricultural and industrial environments. Its UV-stable body resists cracking and fading, the sealed lens stays clear, and the robust activator mechanism ensures years of trouble-free operation. Trust LevALERT for dependable level indication, season after season.
Stop Guessing, Start Knowing. Install LevALERT indicators for safe, instant, and reliable bin level monitoring.
