Abstract
A system for the continuous monitoring of wear is disclosed. The system comprises a flotation cell having at least one flotation component. At least one detector is provided to the at least one flotation component, and at least one sensor is provided to the flotation cell which is configured to communicate with the at least one detector during operation of the flotation cell. In use, the at least one flotation component wears away and ultimately affects a function of the least one detector. The at least one sensor is configured to monitor said function of the least one detector. When the at least one sensor detects a change in the signal of the at least one detector, an operator is notified that maintenance or flotation component replacement may be necessary.
