PROPRIETARY NOTICE
The information contained in this publication is derived in part
from proprietary and patent data. This information has been
prepared for the express purpose of assisting operating and
maintenance personnel in the efficient use of the instrument
described herein. Publication of this information does not convey
any rights to use or reproduce it, or to use for any purpose
other than in connection with the installation, operation and

WARNING
This instrument contains electronic components that are
susceptible to damage by static electricity. Proper handling
procedures must be observed during the removal, installation, or
handling of internal circuit boards or devices:
Handling Procedure:
1. Power to unit must be removed prior to commencement of
any work.
2. Personnel must be grounded, via wrist strap or other safe,
suitable means, before any printed circuit board or other
internal devices are installed, removed or adjusted.

bag or other conductive container. Boards must not be
removed from protective container until the immediate time of
installation. Removed boards must be placed immediately in a
protective container for transport, storage, or return to factory.

Overview
Principle of Operation
The Gladiator Acoustic Switch uses Acoustic Wave technology in a new Sender / Receiver form for blocked
chute detection and anti collision for heavy machinery. The Gladiator Amplifier powers two Transducers
which use special HAWK developed software where both units pulse & receive each others Acoustic echoes.
When the path between the Transducers is blocked the units immediately detect the presence/absence
change of the return signal and trigger a communications relay for indication or control purposes.
HAWK’s Acoustic Wave Transducers are self cleaning. The Acoustic Switch is designed for continuous
operation in dusty, wet environments where other technologies fail. The power of each pulse (pressure wave)
blows the water, moisture & build-up off the face of the diaphragm.

Mounting Instructions
Gladiator Acoustic Switch Series
Flush Mount
For vessels with falling product the transducers
should be installed out of the main product flow
where possible. For heavy falling product chutes the
titanium face version is recommended along with
welding a protective hood above each transducer (not
in front of). Avoid mounting immediately next to the
perpendicular wall.
The transducer has a specially designed UHMW seal
which must be flush with the vessel wall interior. It
should not be recessed. Pipe Specification: 4-00”
Z40 ID = 100mm Black Pipe. Ideally the transducer
should be a snug fit without excessive insertion force
required during installation.
The closest point of the mounting flange when
fully screwed on will be 95mm from the face of
the transducer. Take note that this 95mm should
theoretically be the flush mount point for the
transducer face in the vessel. HAWK’s flanges are
specially decoupled to reduce ‘noise’ created by
mounting related vibration.
Alignment - The transducers need to be as accurately
facing each other as possible. No special rotation
required. ‘Alignment’ software not required.
See page 7 'Blocked Chute Mounting' for mounting
dimensions.
