AMETEK Land offers transportable borescope for thermal surveys
A thermal survey using AMETEK Land’s near-infrared borescope (NIR-B-2K) is frequently the starting point for process optimisation on a furnace in the second half of its life.
An in-furnace thermal survey can take from one to three days, depending on the furnace type and size and the support provided by the site. When troubleshooting a quality issue, a survey can prove its worth in just hours.
Using a transportable NIR-B-2K from AMETEK Land for the thermal survey can enable swift optimisation of a thermal profile to improve yield and reduce CO2 and NOx.
The manufacturer of measurement solutions has documented the potential to recover lost production through thermal profile optimisation, identify regenerator blockages, increase heat transfer, lower NOx and support refractory repairs with the NIR-B.
The images generated from the NIR-B-2K are “not just a pretty thermal picture,” says Philippe Kerbois, Global Industry Manager – Glass, AMETEK Land but a meaningful tool to optimise the furnace for yield, pull, energy, NOx and CO2.
