The 3D Level Scanner is a non-contact, acoustics-based sensor that maps multiple points on bulk material surfaces to calculate volume in silos and bins. It features a painted aluminum die-cast housing, polycarbonate window, and steel flange, weighing 12.3 lb (5.6 kg). Output options include 4-20 mA/HART, Modbus, or RS-485, powered by 20-32 VDC at a maximum of 1.5 W. It operates in ambient temperatures from -40°F to +185°F (standard) or +356°F (high), with IP67 protection and resistance to 2 g vibrations at 5-200 Hz. Certified for Class I, II, Division 1, Groups C-G hazardous locations, it meets FCC Part 15 and EN 61326 emissions standards. The sensor uses a 2-10 kHz frequency with a 15-70° beam angle and is suitable for powders, grains, cement, and plastics.
BinMaster's 3D Level Scanner is the only level sensor that measures multiple points on a material's surface, providing continuous, non-contact inventory volume measurement that accounts for irregular material topography. This advanced acoustics-based technology is proven to perform in powders and bulk solids contained in bins, silos, domes, warehouses, as well as open bunkers and piles. Unique 3D mapping capabilities provide a visual representation of bin contents, detecting cone up or down as well as sidewall buildup.
