Coal surge bin I
Level measurement and point level detection in the coal surge bin
|
|
Process data
Measuring task:
Level measurement and point level detection
Measuring point:
Surge bin
Measuring range up to:
15 m
Medium:
Soft coal and hard coal
Process temperature:
-40 … +50 °C
Process pressure:
0 … 0 bar
Special challenges:
Large measuring ranges, dust exposure and intense filling noise
Application
In a typical coal power plant, lignite (soft coal) and anthracite (hard coal) are stored temporarily in bins up to 15 meters high. To ensure that the coal belts are continuously loaded without interruption, a robust and reliable level measuring system is required. Additional point level detectors are used to prevent any overfilling of the bins.
Your benefit
Reliable
Consistent measurement even during filling
Cost effective
Efficient use of the entire container capacity
User friendly
Simple mounting and setup
