In fields such as petrochemical industry and environmental management, material level measurement in pyrolysis furnaces and ash chambers is particularly critical.
Today we discuss the application of radar level meters in material level measurement in pyrolysis furnaces and gray chambers, introduce the characteristics of these levels, and use cases to demonstrate the effectiveness of radar level meters.
A pyrolysis furnace is a device that converts organic matter into gaseous products through high-temperature pyrolysis reactions. It is often used for waste treatment and resource recovery.
The material level in the pyrolysis furnace usually has the characteristics of high temperature, high humidity, and dust, which puts forward higher requirements for material level measurement technology. The ash chamber is the part of the pyrolysis furnace or other combustion equipment that collects the remaining ash after combustion.
The gray chamber material level is characterized by a relatively low temperature, but there may be a large amount of dust and irregularly shaped solid particles, which may affect the accuracy of the material level.
Radar level meter is a device that uses microwave signals to measure material level. It emits microwave signals, measures the time difference from when the signal is emitted to when it is reflected back by the surface of the material, and then calculates the height of the material level.
Radar level meters have the advantage of not being affected by environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, dust, etc., and are particularly suitable for material level measurement in harsh environments.
In a petrochemical company’s pyrolysis furnace material level measurement, it was difficult to maintain accuracy and stability due to the high temperature and dusty environment.
To this end, the company adopted an advanced radar level meter for transformation. During the actual measurement process, the radar level meter was first installed and debugged accurately to ensure that it could adapt to the high-temperature environment inside the pyrolysis furnace.
Subsequently, by continuously monitoring and recording material level data, it was found that the radar level meter can provide stable and accurate material level information and maintain high accuracy even when material properties change.
In addition, by monitoring the material level in the gray chamber, the radar level meter also demonstrated good performance.
It can effectively penetrate dust and steam, provide real-time material level data, and help companies optimize the ash removal cycle and maintenance plan of the ash room.
It can be seen from the above case analysis that radar level meters have significant advantages in material level measurement in pyrolysis furnaces and gray chambers.
It can not only adapt to high temperature, high humidity and dusty environments, but also provide accurate and reliable material level data, providing strong technical support for the automation and intelligence of the production process.
