Smart Sensor for Continuous Level Measurement
|
Lincoln, Nebraska - 20 January 2011. BinMaster Level Controls has
introduced a SmartBob-TS1 cable-based sensor for bins up to 60 feet
tall. Manufactured in BinMaster's Lincoln, Nebraska plant, this
continuous level measurement sensor is ideal for operations with
multiple, smaller storage and process bins containing powders or bulk
solids. This compact, rugged SmartBob-TS1 sensor weighs less than 10
pounds and works effectively in environments where airborne dust and
filling noise can prevent other types of continuous level devices from
working reliably
