Re: Level Measurement Cement Silo
DearUditha,
In a cement silo you need at least 2 level testers.
1) high level tester, giving a signal that the feeding must be stopped and the silo loading system still can be emptied.
2) high/high level signal, giving a signal that stops the silo feeding automatically, leaving the silo loading system filled with cement.
These level testers are normally capacitive rod testers.
Do not forget a silo safety valve and a properly sized filter assembly.
The third level tester is an option, which can display the cement silo content.
This level tester can be a long wire capacitive tester.

Dear Uditha
You need at least 2 level testers:
1) high level tester. The silo loading must be stopped, whereby the system can be emptied
2) high/high level. The silo loading is automatically stopped, leaving the loading system filled fith cemebt
For this application, normally is a capacitive rod sensor used
Do not forget a silo safety valve and a properly designed filter assembly
The third option is a level tester, which measures the silo content volume.
For this application, a long wire capacitive sensor is used.

Re: Level Measurement Cement Silo
Dear uditha ,
A cement silo requires always 2 level testers:
1)High level, where the loading must be stopped, but the loading installation can still be emptied.
2)High/high level. The loading installation is automatically and immediately stopped
For these level testers a capacitive rod tester is usually used. VEGACAL62
As an option, a level measurement tester can be used, where the volume content of the silo is measured.
For this application, a long wire capacitive tester is used. VEGACAL65

Level Measurement
Dear Mr. Tesus ,
Thanks got yours valuable input , last time I spoke to VEGA and they suggest VEGA 69 (Raddar ) this is most best for level measurement.
I think Vega69 will be given point measurement , even guided raddar and guided capactive also same
Silo after filling top profile is not flat , its like convex , after discharging its like concave.
(Refer drawing )
consider of silo diameter (4.3 m) , there for getting point measurement , getting volume of product have big error. they need to get cement volume
any instrument designer (even texas or NI ) can produce Radio wave forms (Raddar) for refelect complete convex or concave complex shape , so we can think volume.
or I suggest small mechanism.
sensor fixed to roarty servo and linear combination axis. rotary measurement 30deg/step , linear measurment -4 samples for each radisus. then we can capture 4 X (360/30) = 16 measurments
so after that create 3D mesh - matlabsimullink
Siemence software (TIA protal) is compatible to MatLAB
my problem is this is so complex ?
so do you think what is the best option , or my concept is wrong ?

dear Mr. Tesus ,
I got a good solution for BIN Masters, they have multiple bob scanners and 3D scanners for bulk silo measurement
they have software and hardware, I attached their white paper
this is very good.

the file is too large, difficult to attached
thanks for your cooperation and support

Level Measurement Cement Silo
Hi
we need best supplier for cement silo level measurement
we have cement close cement silo , height 10.7m , diameter 4.3 m. cement loading 550 kg/min , discharge 600 kg/min rate. inside silo is highly dust environment.
we need measure level of cement.
I planning to fixed radar type sensor. selected from VEGA 69 , unfortunately very difficult to get quotation
so any one suggest similar sensor for same or other brands ?
plant to office wiring distance 100m, we looking for mod bus , profibus PA ,4- 20 mA interface with sensor display.
any interesting , please mail me to get correct RFQ
