Technical Data Sheet
Non-Contact,
Multiple-Point
Measurement
The 3DLevelScanner is a
non-contact, dust-penetrating
bin measurement device that
measures and maps irregular
surfaces in powder or solid
materials and then calculates
highly accurate bin volume
estimates.

Overview
Accurate Volume Measurement
The BinMaster 3DLevelScanner uses non-contact, dust-penetrating technology
to provide unsurpassed bin volume accuracy. Unlike conventional single
point devices, it works by measuring multiple points within the bin. The
3DLevelScanner uses a very low frequency acoustical signal to penetrate dust
and take measurements which are determined by how long the signal takes to
travel to solid or powder material and return to the device. This technology
is proven to perform in powders and bulk solids, determining a highly accurate
volume of materials contained in tanks, silos, and warehouses.

Electrical Connection & Wiring
General Requirements
ISO 9001:2008 Certified
Power supply and signal current are carried on two separate
connection cables. The 4 - 20 mA output signal is active.
Hence, the PLC must be configured passive.
Connection Cable
An outer cable diameter of 0.31 - 0.47 (8 - 12 mm) ensures
the seal effect of the cable entry. If electromagnetic interference
is expected, the use of screened cable for the signal lines is
recommended.
