STATE-OF THE -ART KILN SHELL SCANNING

摘要

The new Centurion TK 30 kiln shell scanning system from Thermoteknix incorporates aerospace digital infra-red line scan technology to provide operators with real-time information on shell temperature, refractory performance and flame characteristics.Up until the 1970s, monitoring rotary kilns were a number of fixed or rail mounted spot pyrometers each scanning an approximate 15m section. These instruments were relied upon for indicating loss of clinker coating or refractory lining. With the arrival of advanced kilns rotating at faster speeds it became necessary to monitor these conditions far more accurately for cost effectiveness in prolonging campaign life and reducing downtime.
