Process data
Measuring task:
Level measurement and point level detection
Measuring point:
Stockpile
Measuring range up to:
20 m
Medium:
Soft coal and hard coal
Process temperature:
-40 … +50 °C
Process pressure:
0 … 0 bar
Special challenges:
Rain, snow, wind, dust and noise
Application
After being unloaded from rail cars or ships, the coal is stored in stockpiles. Here, reliable measuring systems that function properly in any kind of weather are essential for level monitoring and belt positioning.
