Concrete Chemical Mix Tank Radar Level Measurement

When an Ohio a concrete supplier needed reliable level measurement of their chemical additive mix tank, they turned to Flowline. The firm supplies bulk concrete to order through their headquarter and mobile batch plants. Chemicals are added to each batch to optimize the concrete’s flow, setup time and strength. These admixtures are blended onsite and stored in IBCs. There the I&C manager required a reliable non-contact level sensor that’s unaffected by corrosive, sticky or foaming media. In addition, he wanted a convenient way to mount the sensor under the tank lid. For these reasons, Flowline suggested our LR80 radar sensor made of PVDF installed in our side mount bracket. It’s reliable, simple and maintenance free. The radar sensor provides reliable level data to the PLC that controls the chemical batch make-up and mixing. Flowline is reliable level measurement.
