SmartBob-TS1
Remote 
Cable-Based Sensor for Bins up to 30
Feet
The SmartBob-TS1 sensor is an economical and compact inventory
tracking system that has been designed to measure solids,
powders, liquids or slurries in smaller bins, tanks and
silos. The compact, yet rugged design can be mounted on
angled or flat roofs and can be used in vessels up to 30
feet tall. Accessories include a variety of mounting flanges
to accommodate from 0° and 40° roof angles, pipe
extensions to provide cable protection, a selection of probes
suitable for a variety of materials, and a gearbox motor
heater for when operating temperatures fall below 32°.
SmartBob-TS1 is installed at the top of a vessel. When
prompted to take a measurement, the rugged motor releases
a nylon cable from the supply pulley and a weighted sensor
probe descends to the surface of the material. When the
sensor probe touches the material surface, measurement information
is transmitted. This versatile measuring device can be used
in conjunction with eBob inventory management software,
the SmartBob control console, the BinMaster Remote Start
Unit (RSU), and the MUCM communication module. It can be
utilized in hardwired applications or with a wireless data
transmitter.
