Radiometric sensor for mass flow determination

FUNCTION

In radiometric measurement, a Cesium-137 or Cobalt-60 isotope emits focused gamma rays. A special sensor on the opposite side of the vessel receives this radiation. The scintillator of the sensor converts these gamma rays into signals, the number of which is detected and evaluated. Since gamma rays are attenuated when penetrating matter, the sensor is able to calculate the level, the limit level, the density and the mass flow rate from the received radiation.

APPLICATION AREA

The frame construction offers a simple mounting option for a retrofit on a conveyor belt, to enable non-contact throughput measurement of bulk solids.

The radiometric sensor for mass flow determination VEGA WT31 is a radiation-based sensor for precise flow measurement of bulk solids. It is ideal for mass flow determination on conveyor belts and in conveyor spirals in all industries. Due to its frame construction, the WEIGHTRAC 31 can be simply retrofitted to the conveyor belt.

YOUR BENEFIT

Exact determination of the delivery volume through simple setup
