Spotlight: Continuous Level Measurement
SiloPatrol® SE Inventory control of raw materials for pre-blended masonry
products….
A company in Crystal Lake with 13 silos who provides
pre-blended masonry products and automated mixing stations to construction
sites or as they like to call it “mortar at a push of a button” was
looking for a way to better control the inventory levels of their
raw materials instead of having to do a “visual”. They
are very proactive in trying to find ways to make themselves more
cost-efficient and effective on all levels of operation. After some
research they decided to go with the SiloPatrol® cable-based
smart sensor (SMU) with the SiloTrackTM inventory management software
from Monitor Technologies. Even though the system cost more than
they initially were willing to spend, they were able to justify the
expenditure because of the added benefits of time saved to manually
measure the material levels and for the personnel safety reasons.
Now with automatic or on-demand readings, they have better control
of when they need to re-order raw materials and when the silos are
getting full during refilling to prevent the downtime and clean-up
costs of an over-filled silo. Plus, personnel make a lot fewer trips
up the silos.
Their initial purchase was for 6 SMU’s and the SiloTrack software.
Once they realized the value of the continuous level measurement
system, they were able to justify the purchase of additional SMU’s
for more of their silos.
Other features that they have come to appreciate about
the SiloPatrol is the simplicity of installation (including wiring
and set-up) for the sensor and the software, that the software works
with the current PC on their desk, the sensor’s compartmental
isolation of the electrical and mechanical components which eliminates
much of the dust from going into the electrical area, and the ability
to replace the sensor’s wiper and brush that cleans the cable
without having to actually cut the cable for servicing. They also
mentioned that technical support has been very responsive. They once
had a computer board issue that caused software re-installation problems
and technical support spent the time to talk them through the issue
and shared knowledge for future prevention.
The SiloPatrol SE inventory management system is the second edition
of the industry-leading cable-based smart sensor system that is designed
to handle some of the harshest and most dynamic conditions imaginable.
The SiloPatrol SE system incorporates state-of-the-art sensors with
a wide choice of operator interfaces to fit all types of situations.
