 3 Mass flow measurement (m) using a density meter and a flowmeter. If the density of the solids (ρ
s
) and
the density of the carrier liquid (ρ
c
) are also known, the solids flow rate can be calculated.
1 Gammapilot FMG50 -> total density ( ρ
m
) consisting of the carrier liquid and solids
2 Flowmeter (Promag 55S) -> volume flow (V). The solids density (ρ
s
) and the density of the carrier liquid (ρ
c
)
also have to be entered in the transmitter
Measurement of mass flow (solids)
Bulk solids applications on conveyor belts and conveyor screws.
The source container is positioned above the conveyor belt and the Gammapilot FMG50
below the conveyor belt. The radiation is attenuated by the medium on the conveyor belt.
The intensity of the radiation received is proportional to the density of the medium. The
mass flow is calculated from the belt speed and the radiation intensity.

4.3 Post-installation check
After installing the measuring device, carry out the following checks:
 Is the device damaged (visual inspection)?
 Does the device match the measuring point specifications (ambient temperature,
measuring range etc.)?
 If available: are the measuring point number and labeling correct (visual inspection)?
 Is the measuring device sufficiently protected against sunlight?
 Are the cable glands tightened correctly?
