Measuring task:
Level measurement
Measuring point:
Vessel
Measuring range up to:
1 m
Medium:
Conserves and spreads
Process temperature:
+10 ... +70 °C
Process pressure:
0 … 0 bar
Special challenges:
Changing product density, condensate, small vessel
Application
The small batch filler vessels around 1 m high and 60 cm diameter alongside the production facility supply the filler heads of the tank. The products vary from conserve to peanut butter to chocolate spread, with varying viscosity and temperatures. The product density is also changing from each batch. The level system is required to enable an optimal filling of jars.
Your benefit
Reliable
Measurement independent of density and viscosity
Cost effective
Accurate level measurement optimises use of jars and medium
User friendly
Simple setup
