Solid Flow Measurement

Solid flow measurement is an integral parameter in process industries like Petrochemical, Pharmaceutical, Steel, Cement etc. for functions like measurement, dosing, batching etc. The solid flow measurement is an exciting alternative to conventional techniques like mechanical weighing systems, weigh feeders etc. as they are easy to install and maintain.

The Solidflow sensor supplied by Toshbro Controls is especially developed for measuring the flow rate of solids conveyed in metallic pipes from 20mm to 600mm. The sensor works according to the latest microwave technology. It is wear-resistant and the commissioning is very easy.
The sensor has successfully been tested for online-measuring of:
* types of dust, types of powder, granulates
* grain size between 1 nm and 1 cm
* pneumatically conveyed materials
* in free fall after mechanical conveying systems
