measurements, which was time-consuming, error- prone and often inaccurate. Today, things are different: With radar level sensors from VEGA, Döhler now has reliable real- time data at all times – and benefits greatly from time and cost savings. Now, VEGAPULS C 23 and VEGAPULS 31 sensors deliver accurate level data – available at any time, without employees having to check the tanks manually. This ensures: • Fewer planning errors • More efficient use of tank trucks • Avoidance of overfilling and material waste • A smoother production process The sensors are maintenance-free, Bluetooth- enabled and designed for long-term use. What is more, VEGA has provided training for Döhler employees, to help them make the most of the new technology.
The solution is scalable – all 105 tanks can soon be equipped with the sensors. An investment that pays off!
