1. System Overview
Overview of the measuring system:
Sensor
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.
