Object Positioners
Features & Benefits
Features
The Sentry SR and Watchman 3000 series offer:
- High accuracy for inventory control without density correction
- Monitoring of turbulent or agitated slurries even when mounted at high angle of incidence
- Filtering software that ignores agitator blades and other obstacles
- Ability to measure varying angles of repose and to convex or concave profiles
- Ability to measure to reflective and non-reflective surfaces
- Operation unaffected by dielectric of materials
- Advanced software for superior performance through dust, steam and other harsh environments
- Operation Immune to effects of temperature, vibration and background noise
- Long-range measurement, up to 250 m and 1,500 m with reflectors
- Narrow beam divergence (0.23°)
- Velocity outputs (on positioners)
- HART protocol
- Explosion-proof enclosures
- Programmable discrete relays
- European and North American Hazloc approvals
- Wide operating temperature range of -40°C to 150°C
Typical Applications
Track the position of bulk material-handling equipment such as:
- Tripper cars
- Torpedo cars
- Plough feeders
- Cranes
- Stacker/reclaimers
- Ship loaders
Benefits
- Track moving industrial objects such as
conveyers and tripper cars
- Operate accurately and continuously in
noisy, dusty, hot/cold environments
- Filter out obstacles in high-traffic areas
between the unit and the tracked object
- Measure ranges from 0.4 meters to 250
meters – up to 1,500 meters with
a retro-reflector
- Measure small targets at long range – narrow beam divergence keeps the focus
tightly on your target
- Reduce costs by eliminating moving parts
- Increase safety by eliminating errors due
to human intervention
