BinMaster Sensors for Food Processors

Posted on 2023-10-082023-10-09 by ecbarrion

BinMaster Sensors for Food Processors

Food processors need to measure ingredient levels in storage and process silos, mixers, and batching tanks, or on conveyors and in pipelines. To ensure food quality, level sensors must comply with FSMA food safety and meet hygienic, CIP or clean-in-place requirements to reduce the risk of contamination and prevent out-of-spec batches. From brewing to baby food, and solids to slurries BinMaster has the solutions for inventory monitoring.

We will help you address these challenges:

Powders, solids, liquids, and slurries that all behave differently
Process downtime caused by shortages of key ingredients
Not enough system capacity causing processing delays
Loss of inventory control that leads to spoilage

What Makes 3D Level Measurement Different? (Video)

Measuring material levels in silos and converting levels to inventory is a tall task. When material piles unevenly, calculating accurate volume measurement is difficult. BinMaster’s 3DLevelScanner is the only level sensor that measures more than one point with a single sensor. The 3D acoustic technology is capable of accounting for uneven material topography in volume calculations, resulting in exceptional inventory accuracy.

3D Visualization	No	Yes	Yes	No	No
Output Data	Volume plus minimum, maximum, and average distance	3D visualization, volume plus minimum, maximum, and average distance	3D visualization, volume plus minimum, maximum, and average distance	Average volume	Single distance
Best Application	Wide bins, taller than they are wide	Wide bins, taller than they are wide	Very wide bins, bins with multiple filling or discharge points	Narrow silos up to 14’ in diameter	Narrow silos or silos with structure

**Note: The M and MV can be used on larger diameter bins than specified, but with decreased accuracy since the beam angle will not span the entire surface. The MVL is used on large diameter bins to increase volume accuracy.

BinMaster 3DLevelScanner™ Models

Posted on 2023-05-222023-05-22 by ecbarrion

The 3DLevelScanner uses acoustics-based technology. Three transducers send extremely low frequency sound waves to the material surface, making a sound that sounds like chirping crickets. The sensor receives echoes back from multiple points on the surface which are converted to distance measurements.

Advanced algorithms in the software assign each measurement an XYZ coordinate that is mapped into a 3D image. Optional software generates a graphical representation of the material topography in the bin. Surface variations are accounted for in volume calculations.

BinMaster 3DLevelScanner™ Models

M Maps and Measures

The M model takes measurements within a 70° beam angle. It reports the highest, lowest, and average level. 3DVision software provides highly accurate level and volume data.

MV Adds 3D Image

The MV has all the capabilities of the M model, but also generates a 3D representation of the material surface. Plants that work with materials that bridge, rat hole, or build up along bin walls may prefer to add 3D imagery.

MVL Measures Big Bins

The MVL provides volume accuracy in large diameter bins. Mount multiple scanners in strategic locations to account for surface variations across the material surface. The software synchronizes the level data from all sensors to create a single 3D image and calculate bin volume.

S for Average Volume

The S model determines the average volume of stored materials based on a 30° beam angle. It is used to measure materials in silos up to 14’ diameter and 200’ tall.

RL Single-Point Measurement

The RL model measures at a 15° beam angle and reports a single distance. It excels in harsh, high dust environments and problematic low dielectric materials. It provides reliable level data and is most frequently used in narrow silos or silos with structure.

HT for High Temps

With an operating temperature up to 356°F (180°C), the HT model is suited for materials like clinker, fly ash, frac sand, and alumina.
