The figure at left shows the bottom of a custom probe designed to measure the concentration of solids in a slurry. The probe was designed to fit through a flanged port at the top of a mixing vessel.  It operated like the PCM clamp-on mounts for pipe wall installation, but the design sealed the sensors behind walls of stainless steel to protect the sensors from the hazardous slurry mixture.  The same electronic monitor measured the solids concentration in the mix in real time while material was fed into the vessel.

Because of the unique, non-intrusive capabilities of ultrasound, Applied Sonics can adapt the fluid measurement technology to many difficult applications.  Please contact us if you have special process monitoring needs.
