Endress+Hauser shows you how to work smarter, not harder! Dust formation, abrasion and high temperatures: reliable level measurement in clinker silos can be quite the challenge. Find out how a cement company mastered this challenge with the help of Endress+Hauser and its self-learning smart sensor Micropilot FMR57. Cement is a fundamental part of life, and demands are high in respect to the quality of this construction material. Different varieties are created by joint grinding of the basic clinker with a gypsum anhydrite mixture, with gypsum rock or blast furnace slag and other aggregates. The current construction market situation demands a high level of flexibility and fast switching of varieties from production plants. This is why system availability and storage capacity in the clinker silos are becoming more and more important.
