From aggregates to finished product in the ready-mixed, concrete and mortar industry key stages with e.g. multiple-chamber cells of a partitioned silo in a vertical mixing plant, silos with cement Transportation+storage * Proportioning weigher Mixing Closed circuit of water excess and /wash water and concrete recycling Loading * partially combined with sand + gravel plant

Recycling - closed circuit processing e.g. in ready-mixed plants Recycling of excess water and concrete with solids accumulationThe use of the water which accumulate when washing out feed skips and trucks for ready-mixed transport is country wise regulated by law, which can also be regional different. Cost saving using washing water instead of clear water Necessary determination of raw density to correct the mixture that may be recycled to the process in accordance e.g. german guidelines „DAfStb“ = Deutscher Ausschuss für Stahlbeton, German Committee for Reinforced Concretewith defined processing conditions and limit values for raw density Saving energy and dust tip costs using raw density for controled cycloning to avoid concrete sludge!! Protocol according to EN/ISO 9001

features advantages Self check of measuring point for less personal maintenance to prevent or remove e.g. sludge around the sensor Live-check and automatic cleaning trigger Programmable current output Raw density of any sample can be shown directly, e.g. for concrete washing water measured range 1.00 - 1.40 kg/dm³ (=700g/l dep. on sample) Concentration measurement with user specific correlation Liquisys S Turbidity / Suspended Solids - plus package High resolution at working point and survey when exceeding
The package for raw density measurementwith applicational adapted software in the Liquisys S transmitter Pre-calibrated data set for concrete washing water based on typical samples enable to use the measuring line CUS 41/CUM 2x3 up to a raw density of appr. ca. 1.15 without calibration, thenthree-point calibration with dilution ratio of 100%, 10% and 3% Direct display in raw density Pre-set of the current output to4mA .. 20mA corresponding to raw density 1.0 .. 1.3

Installation of the Liquisys S sensor CUS 41in agitator basinin ready-mixed plants General notice: Installation with an immersion assembly so that also at minimum level of the basin the sensor is covered with excess and washing water Mounting with a minimum distance of appr. 1 m from the immersion pump The sensor holder allows alternatively a basin rimor grating attachement
Installation of the Liquisys S sensor in agitator basinin ready-mixed plants sensor CUS 41 Benefits: Compact shock-proof sensor design Inclined flat surface uses medium flow to increase self-cleaning effect Scratch-proof sapphire windows Low maintenance measurment withexperimental value of 4-6 weeks for control and possibly cleaning of the sensor
Liquisys S software feature All parameters - Live Check LIVECHE PCSalarm adjustable in time periods - up to 4 hours CHECK PCS - process check system alarm, when no change of medium, e.g. if sensor in theopen air sensor is surrounded with concrete sludge,which prevents exchange with flowing medium sensor is nor broken, but totally soiled
