2) SMARTFOAM – HOW IT WORKS.
The SmartFoam is a new and unique product from Hycontrol designed to measure and
control foam in a single unit which is easy and quick to install. The sensor contains its own
transmitter located inside the head so it can connect directly to a process controller or a
pump. The SmartFoam can be used to create an effective foam control system without the
need for any additional transmitter. It is designed to be robust for industrial use.
The sensor is designed using the IMA Sensing
TM
technology which enables foam to be
measured reliably even when it is covered with a build-up of sticky material which frequently
happens during foam measurement. The sensor works by using a small current passing
through the foam into the liquid surface, which is used to measure the foam density.
3) CONNECTIONS
The terminals and adjustments are shown in Figure 1 below.
