Kistler Sensors’ SOLO™ is a turnkey, nonintrusive, and continuous silo weight and level measurement solution that includes intelligent single-vessel electronics, junction boxes, and our patented StrainCell™ sensors. These latest generation, temperature-compensated strain sensors measure weight and level with unmatched accuracy at the nanoscale level. The StrainCell design mechanically compensates measurement errors caused by changing ambient temperature.

 

StrainCell technology, coupled with Kistler Sensors’ decades of application engineering knowledge, results in unique silo weight and level measurement solutions matched to the structural requirements of each silo. Providing 1–3% of full-scale accuracy, Kistler SOLO is a perfect alternative to costly load cell weight measurement solutions. Kistler SOLO comes in two models: SOLO Beam model, optimized for the specific requirements of legged silos, and SOLO Skirted model, optimized for skirted silos.

 

Kistler SOLO intelligent electronics continuously reads signals from sensors, converting and displaying them as weight or level measurement readings.
