Applications are wide ranging from the radiometric level measurement on a pulp digester, over the concentration measurement of green or black liquor, up to the mass flow measurement of recycling paper on conveyor belts. Using microwave transmission technology we provide real-time measurements of the moisture content of wood chips.
These advantages are used to make critical applications more reliable:
- Non-contacting: outside mounting of components
- Reliable under extreme conditions
- Wear and maintenance-free
- Easy installation on existing pipes and vessels via clamp-on solutions
- Smooth handling and operation
- No re-calibration required
- Outstanding long-term stability
- Virtually no operational expenses
The processes in which Berthold instruments are used include:
- Level and high-level switch in the pulp digester
- Pulp stock level in the MC pump standpipe
- Mass flow of recycled paper
- Blockage detection in the pulper
- Mass flow of wood chips or bark
- Density of green or liquor
- Density of lime mud
- Moisture of wood chips
