A trigger, for use with a port through which a flow of particulate solid material selectively passes, is disclosed and comprises a sensor and a trigger body having a first position and a second position. The trigger body is biased for movement to said first position; defines a threshold level of said particulate; is adapted to be positioned, in use, beneath said port so as be impinged upon by said flow when at its first position and moved by said flow to its second position; and is adapted, upon accumulation of said particulate beneath said port beyond the threshold level, to be restrained as against movement to said first position by said particulate until such time as the particulate recedes to said threshold level. The sensor produces a signal responsive to movement of the trigger body to its first position. Particulate handling apparatus including the trigger is also disclosed.
