Description

The FlowJam S detects solid flows of all types for material movement.
A differentiation is made between the following switching states:

Material flow
Material clogging / standstill or empty pipe

The system operates with no contact, using microwaves in a process in which the material movement is detected by using the Doppler effect. The FlowJam S is an especially process-secure device, since the microwave can penetrate material coating on the sensor and reliably detect the material movement behind it.
If container walls, housings or pipelines are not metal, it is possible to measure from the outside. The FlowJam S can also be used under difficult conditions such as high operating temperatures and pressures as well as dust and gas ex-zones with the help of a process adapter.
