Installation Options Hydronix sensors can be mounted in many different locations throughout the process provided that there is a consistent flow of material across the ceramic faceplate. Some typical locations are indicated below. Belt conveyor Screw conveyor Hydro-Probe XT or Orbiter mounted vertically above 150mm material thickness Hydro-Mix XT mounted on a skid with Hydro-Mix sensors installed in the trough of screw conveyor Internal filtering removes noise from measurement. Designed to optimise flow past sensor faceplate Hydro-Mix sensors flush-mounted in bottom of conveyor angled mountings...
