Lime silo II
Level measurement and point level detection in the lime silo
Process data
    Measuring task:
    
    Level measurement and point level detection
        Measuring point:
    
    Silo
        Measuring range up to:
    
    30 m
        Medium:
    
    Lime
        Process temperature:
    
    -40 … +50 °C
        Process pressure:
    
    0 … 0 bar
        Special challenges:
    
    Strong dust generation and possible condensation
Application
For flue gas desulfurization a continuous production of the lime milk is required, the lime is kept on hand in sufficient quantities in large silos. Lime tends to readily adhere to more or less anything, depending on its type and consistency, interfering with equipment like the operation of instruments. A robust, non-susceptible level measurement is therefore absolutely necessary for reliable lime logistics and stocking. That’s why a non-contact measuring instrument that also works well in the very dusty environment is essential here.
