The Radar Level Meter is a high precision instrument used to measure the material level in wood pellet storage silos.
It uses radar waves to detect the height of the material, thus realizing the monitoring and control of the material storage situation in the silo.
Wood pellet storage silos are common storage equipment in wood processing plants, biomass power plants, etc.
The use of radar level meters for measurement has the following characteristics.
First of all, the radar level meter has high accuracy. Traditional measurement methods may have errors, while the radar material level meter adopts a non-contact measurement mode, which can ensure the accuracy and stability of measurement.
It can measure the height of the material in the storage silo in real-time, and the error range is very small, which can reach millimeter-level accuracy.
This is very important for wood pellet storage silo because the accurate material level data can directly affect the management and scheduling of materials in the silo.
Secondly, the radar level meter has the characteristics of long-distance measurement. Wood pellet storage silos are often high, traditional measurement methods may not meet the requirements.
The radar level meter can be measured from a distance, in the height of the larger silo can also accurately measure the height of the material. In this way, even high silos can be easily realized material measurement.
In addition to the above characteristics, the radar level meter also has the advantages of strong anti-interference, long service life, and so on.
It can cope with changes in the internal environment of the silo, such as temperature, humidity, and other factors that have less impact on the measurement results, to ensure the reliability of the measurement.
At the same time, the radar level meter has a long service life and generally can be used for many years without maintenance or replacement.
Below are two practical measurement cases to illustrate the application of radar level meters in wood pellet storage silos. The first case is a wood pellet storage silo in a biomass power plant.
The height of the storage silo in this plant is large, about 18 meters. Conventional measurement methods could not meet the requirements of accuracy and remote measurement.
With the use of radar level meters, the height of the wood pellets in the silo can be accurately measured and fed back to the control system in real-time.
In this way, the factory can rationally arrange the supply and scheduling of materials according to the instantaneous material level data, improving production efficiency and management level.
The second case is a wood pellet storage silo in a wood processing plant. The wood pellets in the storage silo of this factory have a complex texture and are easily affected by the external environment.
The traditional measurement method is difficult to ensure the accuracy of the measurement data. The use of a radar material level meter, due to its strong anti-interference characteristics, can effectively eliminate the influence of interference factors, and accurately measure the height of the material.
So that the factory can adjust the distribution of materials in the warehouse according to the actual material level situation in a timely manner to ensure the stability of the entire storage process.
The application of radar level meters in wood pellet storage silo has many advantages, its high precision, long-distance measurement, strong anti-interference and long service life, etc, which improves the management level and production efficiency of wood pellet storage silos.
In the future, with the progress of technology, radar level meters in wood pellet storage silo application prospects will be more broad.
