Solids flow meter for bulk solid streams
Ensure precise bulk material measurement with a system designed for accuracy and repeatability, handling diverse material sizes, even under high-temperature conditions.
Precisely Measures Continuous Bulk Solid Flow
The DLM Solids Flow Meter from Schenck Process is engineered to precisely measure bulk solid flow in continuous processing environments. Utilizing a non-impact force measurement through a gentle deflection chute, it ensures accurate data without the influence of varying impact factors. Ideal for industries such as chemicals, fertilizers, and biomass, it supports the production of end-products like polypropylene pellets and organic fertilizers. With a robust, dust-resistant design, the DLM operates efficiently even at high temperatures. The system integrates seamlessly with flow-controlled pre-feeders, evolving into a feeding system when required. Offering customization for specific applications, it meets the demands of challenging environments while maintaining high throughput and consistent measurement accuracy.
