Improved thickener operation at Minera Valle Central
Online interface and turbidity measurement with Turbimax CUS71D and CUS52D
In many cases the measurement of interface in thickeners is done manually, while the turbidity measurement is done by obtaining samples sent to the laboratory. In both cases the solution offered by Endress+Hauser proposes to have the values online.
Measuring tasks
-
Level measurement between water mirror and the defined interface inside the thickener
-
Overflow clarified water turbidity measurement
-
Heartbeat Technology to obtain diagnostics, verification, and monitoring of the instrument health status
-
Improvements in thickener operation performance
Customer Challenge
In Mineral processing the thickening stage is very relevant, both concentrate and tailings are needed
with the lowest possible water content, as well as water clarified with the least amount of solids possible. In the case of Minera Valle Central, the challenges are related to get an interface level measurement in the tailing thickeners, to have the crucial parameters in real time, to be able to carry out corrective actions in a timelier manner. And avoid this measurement must be done manually.
