Pyrometric sensor The small-footprint, ruggedized camera is connected to a remote computer with dedicated software with both visible and thermal high dynamic range and high definition images of the zone. Beyond displaying and recording images, HGH’s dedicated software provides thermal information for any point within the field of view such as: temperature, temperature profile and temperature profile evolution. It also supports advanced functions to monitor the shape of the flames or the exact position of the flame front, in real time. A ZERO MAINTENANCE, NO COOLING REQUIRED ESSENTIAL TOOL Pyroscan-U high performance sensor is housed in a compact, IP66 resistant box, complemented by a small size electronic IP66 cabinet and a remote computer with optional printer. Since the camera is designed to withstand the environment in the immediate vicinity of the furnace, no additional cooling element is necessary and the installation infrastructure is kept to a minimum. The software is designed to send all the information through the OPC client or through eight 4-20 mA outputs, thus allowing easy integration into the Plant Control System (PCS). Pyroscan-U requires minimal installation time and wiring; relying mainly on Ethernet or fiber optic connections, the system can be set up in a few hours’ time to provide consistent and reliable monitoring over its lifetime. With no calibration or maintenance needed the system cuts down on maintenance and other costs. APPLICATIONS Pyroscan-U is a megapixel and HDR pyrometric camera providing accurate thermal monitoring of combustion processes. • Because the camera allows for accurate temperature monitoring, detecting any changes due to burner or process adjustment, raw meal and fuel composition variations, Pyroscan-U is particularly well-suited to combustion chambers, furnaces, incineration plants, heaters, boilers... • Recognizing the needs and importance of flame-front control for the waste incineration furnaces, for instance, specific algorithms have been designed in partnership with integrators and end-users; they support real-time display and transmission of the exact position of the flame front through the OPC client. The Pyroscan-U camera serves to monitor the flame front from outside the kiln for security and productivity management. • The advanced features embedded in Pyroscan software and its versatility support a number of functionalities which can be defined and implemented by the user to meet his own specific needs, such as monitoring the shape of flames or hot areas, generating alarms upon crossing low/high thresholds...
