FAQ
Everything you need to know
Sensor
How accurate is the sensor?
With an accuracy of 5% to 10%, depending on the maximum capacity of the silo, our sensor ensures reliable fill level information. This level of accuracy is well-suited to our customers’ logistics needs, allowing them to efficiently anticipate and prevent cement inventory shortages by receiving automated alerts before one or more silos are emptied.
What is the lifespan of the battery?
Our batteries typically last around 5 years, but this may vary depending on various factors. Additionally, it is possible to simply replace the battery if needed.
Does the sensor require regular maintenance?
No, unlike all other technologies, there is no need for on site maintenance on our sensors, everything can be done remotely after installation.
Interfaces
Who can access the data?
Anyone can access the data provided they have been invited and have registered. There are 3 different levels of access: administrator, user or installer. Only the “administrator” will have access to all the datas and give access to the other users.
How often do the data get refreshed?
Data get refreshed every 30 minutes, but higher refresh rates can be programmed on request.
Is it possible to set up automatic alerts?
Absolutely! You can set up different kind of automatic alerts on 3 bases : Level (%), Level (ton) and Missing weight (ton). With just a simple click, you can activate or deactivate the alerts and receive them via email, smartphone notifications, or both, according to your preferences. Additionally, you have the freedom to customize the recipients of these alerts, ensuring that the right stakeholders receive the information they need.
Installation
Who can install these sensors?
Installing a sensor is really quick & easy and can be handled by anyone, but you can decide to dedicate one person (or more if needed) to do the job. He (or she) will be the unique interlocutor for any installation.
Is the content inside the silo important?
As our process is not based on the physical characteristics of the product but on the constraint measured when you fill or empty the silo, the content inside is not important unless there is a change in the feeding. If you have a change of feeding, it is important to inform us and you will have to re-calibrate the silo.
Do we need to stop the production or usage of a silo to install the sensor?
Not at all, our solution is completely non-intrusive! You can continue your normal operations and use the silo without any interruptions. The sensor can be installed at any time, without disrupting your cement production or construction activities. Furthermore, the calibration process is entirely remote, sparing you from any on-site calibration or physical maintenance requirements. While an empty silo is ideal for starting the calibration, it is not a necessary condition.
General
Will your solution be suitable for use inside our factory where the silos are installed?
Yes, our process works perfectly if the silo is inside, just make sure you will have good communication conditions for data transmission. If it is not the case we can supply enhancers.
What kind of silos can be equipped with it?
Our SiloConnect solution can be installed on a wide range of silos that have a base structure with legs. The shape of the leg does not matter, nor does the capacity size or the content inside the silo. Tipically, silos in the industry have cylindrical legs, but the shape may vary in different countries without any impact on our measurements. We provide a simple and clear installation procedure with diagrams to guide you on where to place our sensor on different kind of leg.
Can I integrate your date into our platform and vice versa?
Yes, the exchange between our platforms is possible and really easy to set.
