Silo Bulk Material Weighing and Monitoring System
Product origin :China
Revolutionize your silo management with our advanced Bolted Cement Silo Bulk Material Weighing System, leveraging cutting-edge German micro-strain sensor technology and IoT solutions for end-to-end digitalized storage management. Unlike traditional level sensors prone to mechanical failures, our system uses multi-point weight monitoring to deliver precise, real-time data on bulk material storage, ensuring safety, efficiency, and operational control. With a minimum precision error of ≤1% (and ≤3% under normal conditions), it eliminates risks of understocking, overfilling, and manual inspection hazards while integrating seamlessly with ERP and industrial software for smart, data-driven decision-making. Designed for easy installation on silo support legs, this system transforms your silo into an intelligent weighing unit, ideal for industries relying on bulk material storage.
Core Features of Bolted Cement Silo Bulk Material Weighing Systems
1. Enhanced Safety & Reliability
- Eliminates Manual Risks: Replaces dangerous manual climbing or silo knocking with automated weight monitoring, reducing personnel safety hazards.
- Multi-Point Monitoring: Unlike single-point traditional level sensors (e.g., rotary paddle or radar), our system uses 4 strain sensors per silo for balanced, reliable measurements, minimizing mechanical failure risks.
2. Precision & Stability
- Advanced Technology: Equipped with voltage stabilization, anti-interference, and temperature compensation modules to ensure stable input/output and consistent accuracy: ≤1% error under ideal conditions, ≤3% in normal operations.
- Prevent Operational Disruptions: Real-time weight data avoids costly issues like silo overloading or material shortages.
3. Efficiency & Convenience
- Rapid Data Management: Generates Excel reports in minutes for easy inventory tracking and analysis, streamlining administrative workflows.
- User-Friendly Interface: Intuitive software and quick setup reduce manual data entry and monitoring efforts.
4. Intelligent Integration
- Seamless Connectivity: Supports dBus/ModBus protocols for integration with ERP systems, ash conveying systems, and other management software, enabling centralized control and real-time data synchronization.
- Remote Access Ready: Optional 5G mobile connectivity allows monitoring via smartphones, ensuring access to critical data anytime, anywhere.
