The Milltronics® M Series solids flowmeters are high-capacity flowmeters for various product sizes, densities and fluidities.
With two load cells and two stainless steel cables, material can be guided onto any part of the sensing plate while maintaining constant moments of force. Even with side-to-side variations in flow and changes in the material depth, the unique parallelogram force sensing mechanism provides highly accurate and repeatable weighing.
Operating with a microprocessor based integrator package, the M Series flowmeters display flow rate, totalized flow, and rate alarms. Outputs are 0/4 to 20 mA proportional to rate and contact closure for remote totalization. Dry bulk solids enter the flowguide producing a mechanical deflection as they strike the flowmeter sensing plate before continuing through the process unhindered. The load cells convert the horizontal force of the deflection into an electrical signal. The integrator processes this into a display of flowrate and integrated total weight. The sensing process is immune to the effect of product build-up as only the horizontal force is measured.
With load cells external to the process, the M Series flowmeters measure high capacities with a maximum rate of 900 t/h (990 STPH). For high-capacity aerated gravity conveyor pre-feed, the MA Series has a maximum rate of 900 t/h (990 STPH).
