Solutions for the Building & Cement Industry
In the building materials and cement industry, precise level measurement is essential for maintaining production continuity, equipment safety, and consistent product quality. In environments full of dust, abrasive materials, and high temperatures, choosing durable and reliable level sensors is critical.
Key Challenges in the Industry
Dust accumulation and buildup on sensors
Heavy dust generation in silos and conveyors leads to buildup on sensor surfaces, affecting accuracy and signal reliability.
High mechanical and thermal loads in silos and conveyors
Silage systems often expose sensors to intense vibration, friction, and heat during continuous operation.
Inaccurate fill control causing overflows or downtime
Without precise level monitoring, overfilling or emptying issues can cause production stops or material waste.
Need for certified solutions in potentially explosive environments (ATEX)
Compliance with ATEX and other safety standards is essential in environments where explosive dust or gases are present, requiring the use of certified measurement technology.
