DEAsphalt mixing plants
Liquid bitumen in the asphalt mixing plant
Roads are the lifelines of the modern world. Construction and maintenance of highways require flexible and highly cost-efficient asphalt mixing plants. Bitumen contributes fundamentally to the temperature properties of the asphalt. To ensure economic production of asphalt, a reliable level measurement is required that works well despite high temperatures and buildup.
Level measurement with VEGAFLEX 66
VEGAFLEX 66 is particularly well suited for use in liquid bitumen, which can have a temperature up to +250 °C. Neither buildup nor foaming in the tank can influence the measuring result.
Level measurement with VEGABAR 55
Mounted space-savingly from below, VEGABAR 55 carries out its task unimpressed by the harsh conditions and foam in the bitumen tank. It maintains excellent accuracy and temperature characteristics even when subjected to fluctuating process temperatures up to +200 °C.
VEGACAP 64 as overfill protection
In addition to the continuous level gauging, the level sensor VEGACAP 64 is implemented to prevent the bitumen from overfilling. Reliable function is guaranteed even with centimetre-thick bitumen deposits on the electrode.
