    Function 2. Function SolidFlow is a measuring system especially developed for measuring the flow rate of pneumatically conveyed solids in metallic ducts. The microwave energy is being back scattered by the solid particles and received by the sensor. These signals are evaluated in frequency and amplitude. Because of the selective frequency evaluation only moving particles are measured.

    Safety 3. Safety The measuring system SolidFlow was designed, built and tested to be safe and was shipped in safe condition. Nevertheless persons or objects may be endangered by components of the system if these are operated in an inexpert manner. Therefore the operational instructions must be read completely and the safety notes must be followed.
