For bulk solids and powder applications, Endress+Hauser offers electromechanical level instruments such as the Silopilot FMM20 and FMM50, which use a sensing weight lowered on a measuring tape to determine fill level in silos and bins holding dusty, fine-grained, or coarse-grained materials such as cereals, plastic granulate, and powder. The company also supplies guided wave radar, ultrasonic, and pulse radar instruments, including the Micropilot family, for continuous, non-contact level measurement of bulk solids.
