Solids Mass Flow Determination
 

 

Mass flow measurement systems are used in the precise mass flow determination of solid matter in a variety of conveyor systems:

  • Conveyor Belts
  • Screw Conveyors
  • Troughed Chain Conveyors
  • Steel Plate Conveyors
  • Bucket Conveyors
  • Chutes and Pipes with Free-Falling Materials

The advantages:

  • Noncontact massflow determination with gamma attenuation for kinds of bulk material on continuous conveyors
  • Installation on existing belt, screw conveyors or chain conveyors does not require any major mechanical modifications
  • No moving parts -- no mechanical wear
  • Little space required for frame -- no relaxation section required for mass flow
  • Mass flow determination possible during free fall
  • Low source activity due to the use of highly sensitive scintillation counters
  • Extreme long-term stability due to automatic drift and decay compensation
  • Check of calibration on the empty conveyor system by a standard absorber
  • Determination of the dry weight possible with existing moisture signal
