Siemens Alternatives to Pump Alternation Schemes using Advanced Level Controllers

When it comes to tank or well level measurement at a water or wastewater treatment plant, there are many ways to monitor liquid level and efficiently move the liquid from point A to point B by utilizing pump systems.
Hydrostatic pressure transmitters, ultrasonic level transmitters, and even radar transmitters can all be used, but nothing surpasses the ability of a full-fledged level controller to accurately monitor level while also controlling the pumps needed to move enormous amounts of water.

Conveyor Transfer Chute

A customer came to Hawk Measurement (HAWK) seeking a problem with their transfer chute. The client was using two approaches for Blocked Chute switches in his conveyor transfer chute. The first technology was the hinged impact door that would open when a blocked chute condition developed in the chute and a proximity sensor would indicate that the door had moved. The problem was that buildup of fines material behind the door, sometimes prevented the door from operating if the operator, didn’t hose down the chute on a constant basis.
