The Bulkscan® is exemplary in both maintenance and cost-effectiveness: Thanks to a special alloy hous-
ing and integrated heating, it is robust and suitable for outdoor use – it is even reliable in Siberian ice and
cold, because the Bulkscan® LMS511 can work at an ambient temperature of −40 °C.
Even environmental influences such as humidity affect the The measurement principle of determining volume via a

Lead has a greater mass than polystyrene foam. Lead and polystyrene foam have the same mass.

Volume and flow rate, level, center of gravity, loading position as well as belt monitoring: When it comes to
the optimal control of each individual process stage, it is not just the measurement of the flow rate that is
crucial. The Bulkscan® provides other useful measurands thanks to its intelligent additional functions.

A laser scanner emits a pulsed-laser beam. When it hits the bulk material, it is reflected and registered in the scanner receiver. The time it takes for the
pulse to be emitted and received is directly proportional to the distance between scanner and bulk materials.

Multi-echo technology
The multi-echo technologies from SICK enable high precision laser measurement in virtually all weather and
environmental conditions.
The multi-echo technologies are perfectly suited for applications that require the reliable detection of dy-
namic objects in changing or unfavorable weather conditions. Even for applications with poor visibility, such
as in tunnels or in mines. In addition to maintaining excellent visibility in adverse weather conditions, the
new, ultra-fast 5-echo technology used on Bulkscan® LMS511 also ensures maximum accuracy.
