Spotlight: Solids Flow Detection
Solids Flow Detection
Microwave solids flow detectors can
be used in a variety of applications including feed mills & grain processing,
consumer foods (cereal, sugar, cocoa, coffee), chemicals & pesticides
and more. For example, one company uses Monitor’s Model SFD-2
solids flow detector to verify the flow of feed pellets through their
various transport lines which involves a process where a horizontal
screw auger is conveying pellets over to a vertical gravity chute. The
chute then directs the pellets to a process down below. They have
carefully placed the SFD-2 so that it detects the pellets as they
fall directly across the sensor face. (See Below)
The Model SFI and SFD-2 line of solids flow detectors
from Monitor Technologies, LLC provide analog or relay outputs to
indicate the flow / no-flow condition of powder and bulk solids materials
in chutes and pneumatic conveying lines. Using microwave Doppler
radar technology these units are non-invasive plus extremely reliable
and rugged to withstand the rigors of the installation and your process
extremes. From automated systems with pneumatic lines to gravity
chutes, solids flow monitors can help to improve process performance.
They can assist in detecting flow problems, as well as, enhance the
level of automation at a facility like turning a conveyor on or off.
