Accurate Temperature Measurement Inside Industrial Furnaces
Infrared Camera System for Continuous Reformer Tube Monitoring and Temperature Measurement Inside Furnaces
Advanced Energy ’ s FurnaceSpection™ system provides real-time continuous temperature measurement inside hightemperature furnaces in refining , metals , and glass production processes . By utilizing this accurate system , users are equipped to identify process abnormalities before they develop into problems that can lead to unplanned outages .
FurnaceSpection measures the temperature of product , refractory , and heat transfer surfaces inside natural gas-fired furnaces .
FurnaceSpection measures the temperature of product , refractory , and heat transfer surfaces inside natural gas-fired furnaces . It also enables the monitoring of flame condition , helping users reduce the production of NOX , which results in less environmental impact and longer furnace lifetime .
The system consists of an accurate 640 x 480 focal-plane array thermal imaging camera with high-quality optics and builtin flame filter , which reduces the influence of furnace chamber flame , as well as CO2 . FurnaceSpection is covered by a highly efficient housing , enabling air or optional water cooling to resist high ambient temperatures .
With the FurnaceSpection system , multiple measuring points on the furnace ceiling , end wall , and side wall can be independently monitored by adding measuring regions of interest .
The system helps operators monitor and control process temperature uniformity by streaming images documented by a powerful software for analysis and historical trends . In addition , outputs to automation and DCS and a real-time web server broadcast these images on the plant ’ s local network .
At a cost of several thousand dollars per furnace and re-tubing costs in the millions , the system is designed to save a significant amount of capital by preventing complete furnace failure , as well as maximizing the lifetime of the refractory linings . www . advancedenergy . com | info @ aei . com
