The requirements for measuring the level of bulk materials are increasing. Reliable level sensors achieve the required measuring accuracy in all areas of the process chain. Depending on the position, the standard level gauge can be individually configured, making it suitable for various applications. The measurement of fine powders in the chemical industry is as reliable as the measurement of sand and gravel or the measurement of plastic particles in the construction industry. A variety of different bulk materials are commonly used in steel production. Material level information facilitates accurate material management and avoids conveyor congestion and feed hopper overflows. This prevents material loss, delays and additional costs. In general, simple material level information obtained by optical distance sensors or ultrasonic sensors is sufficient. Extended reading: GWR Solid Level Sensor-for Cement silo-Ash powder measure
