When a New York building materials manufacturer needed reliable level measurement of their plastic pellet storage silos, they turned to Flowline. The company produces non-metallic window, door and roofing products for residential builders, and PVC plastic is a core input. The operator said that their previous yo-yo-type mechanical level sensors were inaccurate, which resulted in pellet shortages and production downtime. They needed reliable level measurement with indication converted from height to pounds and high and low silo alarms. For these reasons, Flowline suggested our non-contact radar sensors with level controllers. The radar sensors provide reliable level data to the controllers for silo inventory and alarms. Flowline is reliable level measurement. |
