3D Level Scanner, Multiple point level measurement
3D level scanners—also known as 3D solids scanners—provide continuous, non-contact level measurement using dust-penetrating technology for unsurpassed bin volume accuracy. Unlike single point devices, 3D scanning performs surface topography measurement and accounts for irregular surfaces when performing volume calculation. The sensor, previously referred to as a 5708, can detect cone up and cone down conditions or sidewall buildup. Bulk acoustic wave technology is proven to perform in powders and bulk solids contained in bins, tanks, silos, domes, warehouses, covered storage bunkers, and piles.
| Item Code | Description |
| BC-730-0559 | 3DLevelScanner-S with 7.67” diameter horn, 20-36 VDC, 4-20 mA output / Hart protocol, and RS-485 communications. Determines the average volume of stored materials based on a 30º beam angle in silos up to 14’ diameter and 200’ tall. Unit comes with internal LCD display and 3DVision software. Hazardous location approved, FM listed for Class I, II, Division 1, Groups C, D, E, F & G. One year warranty. |
| BC-730-0560 | 3DLevelScanner-M with 7.67” diameter horn, 20-36 VDC, 4-20 mA output / Hart protocol, and RS-485 communications. Accurate readings of level and volume of stored materials based on a 70º beam angle. Wider beam angle is appropriate for silos up to 45’ in diameter and 200’ tall, and where improved accuracy in smaller silos is required. Unit comes with internal LCD display and 3DVision software. Hazardous location approved, FM listed for Class I, II, Division 1, Groups C, D, E, F & G. One year warranty |
| BC-730-0561 | 3DLevelScanner-MV with 7.67” diameter horn, 20-36 VDC, 4-20 mA output / Hart protocol, and RS-485 communications. Accurate readings of level and volume of stored materials based on a 70º beam angle. Wider beam angle is appropriate for silos up to 45’ in diameter and 200’ tall, and where improved accuracy in smaller silos is required. Identical to the Model 3DLS-M, with the addition of a special tool that allows 3D graphical representation of the stored contents for display on a remote computer screen. Unit comes with internal LCD display and 3DVision software. Hazardous location approved, FM listed for Class I, II, Division 1, Groups C, D, E, F & G. One year warranty. |
| Model | M | MV | MVL | S | RL |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bin Height | Up to 200’ tall | Up to 200’ tall | Up to 200’ tall | Up to 200’ tall | Up to 200’ tall |
| Bin Diameter | 10’ diameter is the minimum | 10’ diameter is the minimum | 10’ diameter is the minimum | 10’ diameter is the minimum | 10’ diameter is the minimum |
| Beam Angle | 70° | 70° | 70° | 30° | 15° |
| 3D Visualization | No | Yes | Yes | No | No |
| Output Data | Volume plus minimum, maximum, and average distance | 3D visualization, volume plus minimum, maximum, and average distance | 3D visualization, volume plus minimum, maximum, and average distance | Average volume | Single distance |
| Best Application | Wide bins, taller than they are wide | Wide bins, taller than they are wide | Very wide bins, bins with multiple filling or discharge points | Narrow silos up to 14’ in diameter | Narrow silos or basic level indication |
**Note: The M and MV can be used on larger diameter bins than specified, but with decreased accuracy since the beam angle will not span the entire surface. The MVL is used on large diameter bins to increase volume accuracy.
