Product Application - Belt Conveyor

         
 

4B has a wide range of sensors for monitoring the various parts of your belt conveyor. The most

 
 

common areas for monitoring include: bearing temperature, speed / motion, belt alignment and

 
 

level / plug indication .

 
     
 

All of 4B's sensors can be connected to our hazard monitoring systems.

 
     
 

4B also has has an entire line of material handling products, including - conveyor belting.
