Production monitoring system for suction dredgers and dredge pumps

The system is available in two different sets: non-nuclear version and the classic one, with the nuclear source. Both of them are density and velocity meter in one device. The primary function is on-the-fly logging of the productive output of the dredge pump based on the amount of dry solid. It will help the dredge master to work only on the peak efficiency.

Nonius SlurryMeter will be particularly useful for dredging and mining companies, also mining and processing integrated plants and large-scale production enterprises and manufacturers which have the TMF (tailing ponds).

Main advantages

Reducing the cost
Maximizing the amount of dry solid
Efficiency gain due to optimal work mode
Reducing the pump and staff load
Clamp-on solution (fewer expenses for wear-and-tear reasons. No need to upgrade the ship documentations)
Online data access to dredging progress from any place in the world

The user interface

The user interface may vary depending on the vessel project, sensors, and end user's setups and specific needs.

Primary functions

Total control of the situation

— Get real-time dredge output information (based on the amount of dry solid)

— Measure the velocity of the material and therefore accurately calculate the production of slurry

— Analyze the density of the liquid in the pipe
Remote personnel surveillance

— End user interface will show current reports on processed amounts of slurry and dry solids with the data collected separately for each operator
Also

— Saving all the recordings of performed works, equipment and personnel operation time

— Remote data saving to Nonius FleetControl

— Can be integrated with Nonius CSD and Nonius TSHD (our 3D positioning systems), which means fewer expenses for installation
