Buildup measurement in cyclones
Process data
    Measuring task:
    
    Buildup measurement
        Measuring point:
    
    Cyclone
        Measuring range up to:
    
    3 m
        Medium:
    
    Raw meal
        Process temperature:
    
    +300 … +900 °C
        Process pressure:
    
    0 … 0 bar
        Special challenges:
    
    Heavy deposits and buildup
Application
In clinker production, cyclones are used to preheat the raw meal. Before the raw meal enters the rotary kiln it is preheated to +900 °C in the cyclone. Constant monitoring of the buildup thickness on the walls ensures a continuous process.
