Model TC-3X is a light-duty tilt switch constructed from cast aluminum. It is ideally suited for applications where relatively light weight, moderately sized materials are handled (i.e. 15-60lb/ft³; 240-960kg/m³ or particle sizes less than 2in; 50mm). Typical application materials include grain, feed, plastic pellets, and pet food. The TC-3X has a dust-ignition proof approval rating and therefore can be used in applicable hazardous location environments.
