Turn your existing Tank/Vessel/Structure into a scale. KM pioneered
the popular bolt-on, strain gauge, sensor technology for continuous
measuring of vessel weight. Bolt-on sensors measure the stress
level changes in vessel supports caused by material movement
and therefore are not fooled by side build-up, angles of repose
or air pockets. Quickly and easily installed, this non-intrusive,
cost-effective method is an excellent alternative to traditional
level sensing.
A dual-axis strain gauge sensor that is
bolted
to the vessel's support structure, measuring changes in stress
in the vessel support member. The second axis compensates
for temperature variations, providing a cost effective, industrial
strength weighing system. There is no need to empty the vessel
or take it out of production to install or service.
