2. Function

SolidFlow is a measuring system especially developed for measuring the flow rate of conveyed solids in
metallic ducts.
The SolidFlow sensor is based on the newest microwave technology. The sensor is usable in metal
ducts. Through the coupling of the microwave in the duct it is created a homogenous measured field.
The microwave energy is being reflected 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.
The measuring signal is independent of pressure and temperature in the duct. A measuring unit
consists of one sensor and the evaluation unit.
