Practical Tech Tip
Providing Level Measurement for Lighter and Fluidized Materials

 

The SiloPatrol� cabled and weight based "smart" level sensor can be equipped with an optional stainless steel inverted cone-style plumb bob in order to provide level measurement in lighter powder & bulk solid materials (bulk densities greater than 5lbs/ft3 [80kg/m3]).  The inverted cone style plumb bob will not penetrate lightweight or highly aerated powders as likely as a standard plumb bob may tend to do. A Teflon� coated version of this inverted cone is also available for corrosive or sticky materials.


For more details on the SiloPatrol� level sensor, please visit http://www.monitortech.com/product_c_c_sp.shtml or e-mail: monitor@monitortech.com.
