Control console provides local access to silo inventory
The C-100 console (photo) mounts at a convenient location in the plant or a loadout. Employees simply walk or drive up to the C-100 and review level data from level sensors from 1 to 128 silos from a single console. The rugged NEMA 4X enclosure can be mounted indoors or outside. The local display eliminates the need to visit a control room or PLC and complements BinView or Binventory inventory management software. The C-100 offers measurements displayed as feet or cubic feet; U.S. gallons or bushels; and tons, metric tons, or kilograms. Measurements can be output as height of material or distance to product (headroom). The C-100-SB model is used with SmartBob level sensors, the C-100-MB is for use with SmartBob sensors requiring a Modbus output, and the C-100-R is compatible with NCR non-contact radar, and GWR guided wave radar, and SmartSonic ultrasonic level sensors. — BinMaster, Lincoln, Nebr.
