Control/Measurement Thermal Imaging Camera Solution for
“FurnaceSpection” Applications Special filters allow for accurate temperature measurement in high temperature furnaces
Thermal Camera MCS640
documented by a powerful software for analysis and historical trending, outputs to automation and DCS, and a real-time web server to broadcast images on the plant’s local network.
The use of a viewing port, just 8mm in diameter, and the provision of positive air pressure across the end of the borescope optics ensure that the
lens is protected whilst the system is inserted into the process.
For furnace temperatures above 1400°C, the air cooling system can be supplemented with the addition of a water cooling system. In the event of cooling water or air medium failures, a specially developed camera retraction system is designed to automatically withdraw the camera from the process to prevent it being damaged by excessive heat, giving the user peace of mind that their valuable asset is protected 24/7, 365.
The radiometrically calibrated imager accurately measures the temperature of product and refractory, inside natural gas fired furnaces. The user is also able to
LumaSense
This FurnaceSpection™ thermal imaging system by LumaSense Technologies is designed and developed for continuous temperature measurement inside high temperature furnaces in refining, metals, and glass production. FurnaceSpection’s proven technology provides critical insight for failure prevention and asset management and offers users a critical tool for improving process and reducing waste.
The FurnaceSpection™ system provides users with a real-time tool for quickly and accurately identifying process abnormalities before they develop into problems that can lead to unplanned outages. This radiometrically calibrated imager accurately measures the temperature of product, refractory, and heat transfer surfaces inside natural gas fired furnaces.
The new generation of this high-grade imaging system is equipped with a rigid borescope optics, which enables monitoring of the temperature distribution inside e.g. melting furnaces through the furnace wall. By utilizing high quality optics, a resolution of more than 300,000 pixels can be achieved, and the borescope lens system is available in a number of different lengths to suit virtually any application and need.
FurnaceSpection™ helps operators monitor and control process temperature uniformity through streaming images
