Why did the client choose these Allpronix products?
It was the best solution we could find after researching other instruments and techniques. The system measures continuously, accurately and transmits wirelessly to our control room. 3D images provide a useful representation of the stored product. The system measures mass, volume and level.

Saves a lot of man hours, reduces human error and the system is not weather determined like the old “dip testing” was.
