Level measurement in leaching applications​

Accurate monitoring of acid distribution to prevent instabilities and optimize operations

Heap Leaching - Level Measurement

Accurate level measurement that is unaffected by process conditions​

Leaching is a process in which acid solutions are used to extract minerals from ore. ​Level measurement is required in the leaching process to monitor and control acid distribution, help detect plugged lines and flooding, prevent pad instabilities and provide better insight into leaching efficiency.​

The monitoring of level measurement in leaching pads can be achieved by the Rosemount 5408 Non-Contacting Radar Level Transmitter, which is not affected by process conditions and handles very demanding applications.
