Crushers are widely used in mining, metallurgy, and construction to crush materials of various hardnesses for subsequent processing and production. During crusher production, it is important to know the material level and flow variation, which helps to improve production efficiency, control material quality, and prevent problems such as equipment overload.
A radar level meter, as a high-precision, non-contact measuring device, has become one of the best choices for crusher level measurement. We will introduce the characteristics of crusher level and discuss the application of a radar level meter in crusher level measurement.
First, take a look at the characteristics of crusher levels. First material uncertainty: crushers handle a wide variety of materials, including hard rock, bricks, glass, etc.
These materials have different densities, sizes, and shapes, and therefore pose a challenge for crusher level measurement. Secondly, there is a lot of chaos and dust: During crusher production, the material is usually dumped into the crusher from above, which makes the movement of the material unpredictable.
Also, crusher operation generates a lot of dust and debris, which can cause damage to the measurement equipment and affect the accuracy of the measurement results.
Third high production rates: Crushers are highly efficient production machines with very high production rates and require measurement equipment that can respond and provide accurate data in real-time. In addition, the crusher’s production process requires constant replenishment of material and therefore requires a measurement technique that can respond as soon as the measurement is accurate.
So why, many companies should choose radar level meters to measure crusher material level? The application of a radar level meter in crusher material level measurement can bring the following advantages,
firstly, the radar level meter adopts high-frequency microwave technology, which can make accurate measurements of material density, size, shape, and other factors, and it can measure without touching the material itself, thus avoiding the damage caused by the material to the sensor.
Secondly, the radar level meter has the feature of fast response, which can measure the material level in an instant and provide accurate data, which can help the crusher’s real-time monitoring and precise control.
And because of the contactless measurement method of radar level meter, it can effectively avoid the measurement error and equipment failure caused by the chaotic movement of material and the problems of dust and debris.
Through the full text, we can easily find that the measurement of crusher level is a certain challenge, more traditional level meters such as heavy hammer level meter not fully suitable, and the radar level meter with its own performance advantages can be better to measure its level.
