The stationary metering
system is designed to discharge tank trucks. For the commercial trade
use GEA Diessel offers a technical version which fulfils the demands of OIML R117 (the qualification approval of the
Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt in Brunswick is available). That means:
The system is officially recognized by the responsible Weights & Measures
Offices. Essential features of this metering system are the design of the air
eliminator and the arrangement of the centrifugal pump. The positioning of the
pump in the flow direction after the air eliminator increases the separation
rate of air locks and, thus, considerably contributes to improve the measuring
accuracy. Dependent on the smallest possible intake quantity, the metering
system obtains a measuring accuracy which is better than ± 0.5 % of the volume
received. The modern customary truck-mounted tanks of a capacity from 5,000
litres up to 15,000 litres each grant a measuring incertainity of less than ±
0.15 %.
Special features:
A new detection method for air bubbles enables an optional
optimization of the flow permitting an essential rise in the volume flow
without increasing the measuring fault. This technique offers some advantages
for the discharge of tank trucks even if several tanks will have to be emptied
simultaneously. This new method considerably reduces the risk of faulty
measurements caused by a large part of air in critical phases of the milk
reception process.
Features:
- Measurement, indication, monitoring and storage of:
quantity, temperature, date/time, driver no.
- W&M approved system
- Control of pump and sampling device
- Control of sampling turntable
- Print-out of voucher of all relevant data
- Data transfer to the PC or to the control unit
