3D Radar Level, Volume & Mass Transmitter
Exclusive Importer & Engineering Partner in Israel: S.F.I. Engineering & Conveying Ltd.
A cutting-edge inventory and process measurement system equipped with a 5-beam array that simultaneously scans multiple points on the material surface inside the silo. It provides highly accurate real-time level, volume, mass, and a full 3D profile of the bulk materials. Engineered to operate flawlessly in extreme dusty environments, it is entirely maintenance-free and requires no air purge systems.
Core Engineering & Operational Benefits:
· 5-beam coverage maps the entire silo surface area, eliminating errors caused by irregular material distribution, rat-holing, or funneling.
· Real-time 3D visualization provides operators with structural profiles of the material inside the silo.
· Completely unaffected by heavy dust, humidity, noise, or temperature fluctuations.
· Zero maintenance design – eliminates the need for expensive compressed air lines or air purge systems.
· Enables precise supply chain management by providing actual density-based mass and volume data.
Expanded End-Use Industrial Applications:
Application 1: Industrial Grain & Flour Silos
In massive agricultural storage complexes and flour mills, grain forms irregular cones during loading and empty pockets (rat-holes) during discharge. Standard single-point radar sensors frequently deliver false readings, leading to costly inventory shortages or dangerous silo overfills. The 3D Radar Transmitter scans the entire material surface at 5 distinct points, providing exact volume and mass calculations. It operates continuously within dense flour dust without requiring an active compressed air cleaning system, keeping maintenance costs at zero.
Application 2: Cement & Clinker Storage Silos
Cement production generates high concentrations of highly abrasive, adhesive dust that quickly coats and blinds traditional ultrasonic or optical sensors. Furthermore, clinker storage siloes experience extreme heat and shifting material profiles. The S.F.I. 3D Radar Level Transmitter penetrates the thickest dust clouds and withstands high temperatures, providing uninterrupted inventory tracking and preventing process bottlenecks in cement shipping and packaging lines.
Application 3: Potash, Phosphate & Fertilizer Storage
fertilizer materials are highly corrosive and stored in massive domes or irregular silos. This system maps the complex surface topography of these corrosive chemicals. Since the sensor does not have any rotating or moving parts, and has no need for air purge lines that would introduce humidity and cause chemical caking, it provides a reliable, long-lasting digital tracking solution for heavy chemical exporters.
