Continuous level measurement

ILS Continuous level measurement

ILS is a Continuous Level Measurement system for any kind of powdery or granular material stored in silos or containers.

Function

The feel weight of the ILS-system moves, microprocessor-controlled, down into the container.

Upon impact on the bulk material it is pulled back to its upper stop position. By capturing the distance that the feel weight has moved the material level is measured.
