Rhosonics has launched the 3rd generation of theSlurry Density Meter, the SDM ECO. The SDM ECOincorporates over 1,000 installations and almost20 years of on-site experience. The SDM ECOserves as guard of your process and is poweredby safe non-nuclear technology, it is contributingto a new era of mining, where safety, sustainability,and operational excellence come first.

Features and benefits

Reliability: The SDM ECO uses ultrasonics, which isa trusted and field-proven technology to measurethe slurry density, even under the highest densitylevels and with abrasive conditions.

Eco-friendliness: No radioactive materials, resultingin lower cost of ownership, reducing resourcesand time spent on nuclear safety compliance.

Adaptability: The modular design and a range offittings make the instrument applicable for variousinstallations, in horizontal or vertical pipes, half-filled pipes, launders, or tanks.

Ease-of-use: Instrument control is done througha standard 7’’ touchscreen display, laptop, viaoptional Wi-Fi, or from anywhere when access isgiven to the server.

Measuring methods

The SDM ECO uses the acoustic impedance tocalculate the slurry density. This parameter refersto the reflection of ultrasonic energy that occursat the interface between the sensor and a slurryor liquid.
