Raw meal silo
Level measurement and point level detection in raw meal silos
Process data
Measuring task:
Level measurement and point level detection
Measuring point:
Silo
Measuring range up to:
20 m
Medium:
Raw meal
Process temperature:
-40 … +50 °C
Process pressure:
0 … 0 bar
Special challenges:
Strong dust generation, buildup
Application
Before being burned in the rotary kiln, the material from the blending bed and the aggregates are ground to a fine raw meal in large mills. The powdery material is then transported to the silo by a pneumatic conveyor system. Reliable monitoring of the level is essential for optimal raw material storage.
