1 ka059000en; Rev. 1.0 Flow indicator for bulk solids FTR20 The FTR20 flow indicator for bulk solids is a non-contact device based on microwave technology. It is ideally suited for monitoring pneumatic and mechanical transport processes for bulk solids. The compact device can be used wherever the cost-effective monitoring of bulk solids movement is required. Typical areas of application or bulk solids are: • Building materials industry: Cement, plaster, wood chips etc. • Chemical industry: Fertilizers, plastic powder, granules etc. • Food industry: Coffee, tea, tobacco, cereals, malt etc. • Energy production: Coal, carbon dust, fly-ash, coke etc. Individual adjustments to the application are carried out by means of configurable functions (including automatic calibration). In addition, changes in the mass flow can be analyzed by the optional 4 - 20 mA current output. Detection range up to 20 m depending on the bulk solids Process temperatures up to +70°C (+158°F) or +450°C (+842°F) with optional high temperature adapter Process pressure up to 680 kPa (6.8 bar) absolute or 2000 kPa (20 bar) absolute with optional high pressure adapter For use in hazardous areas (dust 1/2D): ATEX, CSA, EAC and IECEx Compact device: Sensor, transmitter and power unit are mounted in a housing, which means less effort is required for installation and mounting. The device can be used wherever cost-effective monitoring of a mass flow (present or not present) is required. Flush-mounted installation, non-contact installation possible Easy mounting using R 1½, 1½ NPT or G 1½ thread or a suitable mounting bracket Electronics housing can be rotated by 360°, allowing orientation into optimum position after installation Easy electrical connection using the connectors (optional with suitable mating connectors or prefabricated connection cables) D I N o t E g N n i d I S r o O c c 9 a 0 0 d 1 e i : f 2 i t 0 r 1 e 5 C Q M m e t s s y * * QM
