Quarry
Stone crushers in the quarry
Moveable chucks of rock are freed from the solid bedrock by blasting. They are then reduced to an appropriate grain size for further processing by jaw and roller crushers. To keep wear on the crusher as low as possible and guarantee efcient operation, the charging of the crusher must be monitored.
Continuous level monitoring in the crusher with VEGAPULS 67
Mounted over the crusher, the radar sensor VEGAPULS 67 ensures that the flling quantity is correct. Uninfuenced by wind, weather, abrasion and, above all, the intense generation of dust, it continuously keeps watch over the level in the crusher. The tremendous noise in the crusher, which can paralyse most ultrasonic sensors, doesn’t bother the non-contact radar sensor. This guarantees reliable measurement, minimum wear and optimal production throughput.
