Maybe somebody has a simple solution for me on this one. I have 2 small silo's one with Dolomitic lime the other with powdered lime. They are deliverd by rotary feeders, into a wye, into a common chute.
When a order of lime is requested the rotary feeder revolutions are counted,based upon known lime weight and area of the rotary bin, until the order is achived. The problem lies, if the lime silo's bridge over above the rotary, no material falls into the rotary feeder. I need to know that material is comming out of the rotary feeder. I need a sensor that will see the lime comming out of the rotary feeder.Any Idea's?
Thanks
