Description
The 3DLevelScanner HT measures inventory level and estimates volume in storage silos containing challenging materials such as clinker, alumina, frac sand and fly ash. This model of the 3DLevelScanner (aka 3D Solids Scanner) has an operating temperature range up to 356°F (180°C) to accommodate higher temperatures that may be present when material that has been heated in the production process is conveyed into storage. The 3DLevelScanner HT is ideal for use in the cement, aluminum, mining and power industries where there are multiple challenges such as dust or high humidity as well as in very large silos where the material surface in the bin may be uneven and difficult to measure.
3DLS-M-HT
3DLevelScanner-M with extended temperature up to 365°F with 7.67” diameter horn, 20-36 VDC, 4-20 mA output / Hart protocol, and RS-485 communications. Accurate readings of level and volume of stored materials based on a 70º beam angle. Wider beam angle is appropriate for silos up to 45’ in diameter and 200’ tall, and where improved accuracy in smaller silos is required. Unit comes with internal LCD display and 3DVision software. No hazardous locations approvals. One year warranty.
3DLS-MV-HT
3DLevelScanner-MV with extended temperature up to 365°F with 7.67” diameter horn, 20-36 VDC, 4-20 mA output / Hart protocol, and RS-485 communications. Accurate readings of level and volume of stored materials based on a 70º beam angle. Wider beam angle is appropriate for silos up to 45’ in diameter and 200’ tall, and where improved accuracy in smaller silos is required. Identical to the Model 3DLS-M, with the addition of a special tool that allows 3D graphical representation of the stored contents for display on a remote computer screen. Unit comes with internal LCD display and 3DVision software. No hazardous location approvals. One year warranty.
