Buildup measurement in cyclones
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.
Your benefit
