MONITORING SYSTEM FOR THE DETECTION OF FERROMAGNETIC ELEMENTS IN MINERAL LOADS

摘要

The invention relates to a monitoring system for the detection of ferromagnetic elements concealed in a mineral load during the loading and/or unloading of a container, said system comprising: at least one magnetic field sensor for the automatic and real-time detection of disturbances in the local magnetic field; a computer that compiles and processes data using software; a wired or wireless short-range communication channel located between the nodes and the computer; a display incorporating a light and/or sound alarm; a wired or wireless long-range communication channel between the user and the computer; a portable battery type power source or a connection to a fixed and/or mobile power supply; and optionally auxiliary sensors.
