M and MV 70° beam
angle for wide bins

Whether the application is a narrow or wide, tall or short bin … there are four models of the 3DLevelScanner referred to as SB, S, M and MV, all of which come with proprietary 3DLevel Manager software. Here are some general guidelines to selecting the correct model.

Note: Models 3DLS-S, 3DLS-M, and 3DLS-MV can be used on silos with a larger diameter than specified, but with decreased accuracies given
that the beam angle will not span the entire surface of the material. For a very accurate reading of volume and 3D profiling, it is necessary
to stay within the specified diameter and silo heights.
