Chemical Equipment Update
Xavier Herman, Assistant Engineer, Yara, said: “The installed system enables us to follow-up on the state of the refractory. Due to the system we are able to detect changes that give us the opportunity to act at an early stage. Furthermore Yara is satisfied with the cooperation with Sensornet to find a solution and the ability to react and adapt to small changes during the project. Yara is also satisfied with the effort Sensornet made to provide a system in a short period.” ❒

For each of the vessels a total of 1km of sensing cable was deployed directly onto the skin. The fact that the DTS system offers measurement times of down to 10 seconds and temperature changes of better than 0.01°C can be detected by the sensing cable meant a total of 1,000 measurement points were established, providing the client with comprehensive thermal modelling of the reactor vessel.
