Solid flow meter for granular and powdered bulk materials

Ensure accurate mass flow measurement and seamless integration in your production line with a solid flow meter designed for continuous operation, ideal for handling granular and powdered bulk materials efficiently.

Measures and Monitors Solid Material Flow

The MULTISTREAM B Solid Flow Meter from Schenck Process is your solution for precise mass flow management in diverse industries such as chemicals, energy, and infrastructure. This inline measuring system employs a baffle plate measuring principle to continuously record the flow and rates of solid materials, ensuring accurate throughput and consumption tracking. With the capacity to handle up to 100 tons per hour of powders and granules, this system supports operations with materials as varied as lithium-ion battery cathode material, ammonium nitrate fertilizer, and polyethylene films.

Designed for seamless integration with no need to offset inlet and outlet points, the MULTISTREAM B is cost-effective and easy to install in existing production lines. Its stainless steel, dustproof housing ensures durability and cleanliness in processing environments. Additionally, the integrated DISOCONT evaluation electronics can be installed directly within the device, streamlining operations and reducing setup complexity.

For facilities seeking energy efficiency, the solid flow meter’s compact design mitigates unnecessary height loss, optimizing space utilization within your plant. Schenck Process offers configuration options tailored to your specific process requirements, including adaptation for use with a controllable metering hopper, enabling the flow meter to function as part of a comprehensive feeding system. This equipment is built to meet the challenges of dynamic industrial environments, providing robust performance and comprehensive support for your material handling needs.
