Plumb Bob Style "Smart" Level Sensor

The SiloPatrol plumb bob style "smart" level sensor can be equipped with an optional stainless steel interface style plumb bob in order to provide level measurement for settled solids in a blanket of water. The interface style plumb bob will penetrate through the water, make contact with the surface of the solid material, and then retract to provide a level measurement.

Examples of material applications that have been successful include sand, salt, potatoes, corn, rice, and similar items that are covered by a layer of water. Interface with other liquids besides water may also be possible.
 
The SiloPatrol is a rugged material level measuring system designed for the demanding and most dynamic conditions. In addition, a variety of operator controller devices and software, like SiloTrack software, are available to calculate and display material level inventory data.
