ULM-3D-64. 3D radar level transmitter.

Ask a question

ULM-3D-64 multi-beam radar level transmitter for bulk products and materials with 3D scanning function.

The ULM-3D-64 multi-beam radar level transmitter is a modern high-tech measuring instrument designed for continuous, accurate, and reliable level and volume measurement of bulk products in various types of vessels (bins, silos, warehouses, and storage facilities). The radar level transmitter implements the principle of simultaneous measurement at dozens of points across the entire product surface by utilizing multi-beam radar technology and intelligent data processing to generate a 3D surface map.

 

 

Key advantages and features:

High accuracy and stability

The use of multiple simultaneous independent measuring beams ensures material level and volume measurement with an accuracy of up to 0.1% (within the system). Each beam operates as an independent meter, while the intelligent signal processing system aggregates the data to form a reliable 3D surface map.

3D surface scanning

The ability to integrate multiple ULM-3D-64 radar level transmitters into a single system significantly expands the coverage and detail of the measured surface. The full scanning effect enables not only level measurement but also accurate calculation of the volume and average height of the bulk product, as well as visualization of material distribution within the silo.

Dust resistance

Radar technology is insensitive to dust, unlike optical laser methods (LiDARs), which guarantees measurement stability and reliability even in challenging industrial environments where other monitoring tools are unusable or inefficient.

Wide range of applications

The instrument is designed to measure the level and volume of materials such as grain (wheat, corn, rice, soybeans, sunflower), compound feed, meal, flour, cement, clinker, ore, coal, alumina, mineral fertilizers, sand, crushed stone, and other bulk substances.

Absence of moving parts and high reliability

The ULM-3D-64 radar level transmitter design contains no moving elements, which eliminates wear and the need for regular maintenance. This reduces operating costs and increases equipment durability.

Software integration

Integration with the MULTI BEAM RADAR SURFACE PLOTTER software suite enables not only the acquisition of high-precision level and volume data but also real-time surface visualization as a 3D model, facilitating monitoring, planning, and inventory management.

Flexible system scalability

The system is easily adaptable to any task, from monitoring small vessels to tracking large warehouse complexes, by networking multiple radar level transmitters.

 

Rationale for choosing ULM-3D-64:

Unlike traditional single-beam or single-beam radar level transmitters with mechanical scanning, the ULM-3D-64 multi-beam radar level transmitter provides significantly higher data content, accuracy, and measurement reliability. This is particularly important for enterprises requiring strict inventory control, elimination of the human factor, loss minimization, and automation of warehouse processes.

Multi-beam technology allows for the detection of material distribution irregularities, the formation of "pockets" and "cones," and a timely response to any changes in the volume or structure of the stored product. All these factors contribute to logistics optimization, cost reduction, and increased enterprise efficiency.
