The LevelSense utilizes electrical impedance tomography (EIT), which allows analysis and measurement of the media inside process tanks and pipes. Measurements are based on the conductivity distribution of the media and advanced mathematical modeling.
Robust slurry level measurement
Outotec LevelSense detects the slurry-froth interface reliably through the difference in electrical properties between the two phases. Since the measurement principle doesn’t require any moving parts, the probe is much less prone to mechanical failures than traditional instruments. The probe is also immune to density changes in the slurry and can be used in applications where the froth depth would be too high for conventional methods. All these properties lead to a more stable and better-performing flotation process.
Quick and easy installation
Outotec LevelSense is designed for Outotec TankCell® flotation cells, but can be used with other types of cells too. Measurement is carried out by using a probe sensor system that is mounted on top of a flotation cell to penetrate the froth and slurry phases of the cell. The accurate signal of the slurry-froth interface and froth thickness can be combined with Outotec CellStation®, Proscon® or other plant process control system for improved level control.
