SONO-VARIO Concrete Moisture and Temperature Sensor for Cement, Concrete or Gravel

SONO-VARIO Standard: For measuring abrasive and complex materials

Advantages:

• Ideally to measure abrasive materials like sand, gravel and other aggregates
• Highly reliable when measuring complex materials like minerals, powders, granules, quartz sand, food and sludge
• Thanks to TRIME technology it is unaffected by steam or changing particle sizes of sand and gravel
• The additionally measured radar-based conductance up to 12dS/m allows conclusions on other parameters of the material recipe
• Simple installation in containers, shafts, silos and conveyor belts
• Probe head made of stainless steel with rectangular ceramic window
• In case of abrasion at probe head an automatic correction of the measuring value happens – without recalibration.

SONO-VARIO Xtrem:
IMKO developed SONO VARIO Xtrem for highly abrasive materials like gravel and grit. A hardened probe head with special ceramics guarantees a long lifetime.

Applications and benefits:
    Ideal for measurements in highly abrasive bulk solids like for example 8-16mm gravel or sludge
    Highest reliability also when measuring adhesive materials like pastes, lime, powder, cellulose, dough and similar
    The probe head consists of strongly abrasion-resistant, hardened steel with a rectangular ceramic window and it is interchangeable
    Precise measurement also under extreme conditions
    TRIME technology ensures reliability even with steam or different particular sizes of sand and gravel
    The additionally measured radar based conductivity value up to 12dS/m allows conclusions on other parameters of the material recipe
    Simple installation in containers, shafts, silos and at conveyor belts
    Automatic correction of measuring value in case of abrasion of the probe head without recalibration
    Intelligent preprocessing of measuring values with floating averaging, adjustable filter and up to 15 calibration curves happens directly in the probe
    Two variably adjustable analog outputs 0 (4)…..20mA enable an easy connection to every control system
    A RS485 interface connects the operation of the probe
    A data bus protocol to connect several SONO probes is included
    A connection of the probe to industry busses like Profibus, Ethernet and similar is possible via optional, external modules
