Monitoring level in sand bunkers

The solution

Ultrasonic sensors from Balluff provide contactless measurement of the levels of sand bunkers in the foundry and do it continuously over a detection range of up to 6 m. They remain unaffected by dust or contamination.

The fill level output can either be an analog signal or a two switching signal output as min./max. value.

The features

• Non-contact, continuous measurement
• Reliable in critical environmental conditions such as dust and impurities
• Extreme precision with high resolution and no blind zones
• Independent of material and color
