The electro-optical volumetric measurement system for discharge conveyers measures the volume of material being discharged from a conveyer belt using electro-optical technology and then transmits these measurements directly to a handheld computer unit.
 

· by the use of a non-contact sensor
· without wear (no moving parts, no load cells etc.)
· even with very short, foldable or ribbed belts
· even with very light material (wood chips, waste)
· in spite of external factors such as sunlight, dust, humidity, heat, cold
· even with extreme temperature fluctuations and thus changing stiffness of the conveyor belt
· at varying angles
· easy installation and calibration
· by eliminating wiring between sensor and control terminal (data streaming via Bluetooth on PDA)
· and data storage up to 3 years
· and maintenance-free operation

The calibration of the system is a once off operation and only takes a few seconds to perform after installation.

The belt speed is measured using an inductive switch mounted on the drive drum.

Automatic measurement and data store for up to 3 years. Indication lamp mounted on the sensor that lights when in operation. Wireless data transmission via bluetooth.
