Highly Accurate thermal mapping from outside the combustion zone
Pyroscan-U is specifically designed to perform thermal monitoring and mapping of any object inside a kiln, furnace, boiler or reactor, while looking at the area of interest through a standard window, from outside the combustion chamber.
This megapixel pyrometric camera captures both visible and infrared HDR (High Dynamic Range) images of the burning zone. The user-friendly and customizable Pyroscan software, running on a remote computer in the plant control room, displays the high-resolution images for an acute visualization of the combustion stages, and provides accurate temperature measurements in real-time over 1.2 million points within the field of view. The software also includes advanced functionalities, such as anti-dust filtering; real-time statistics on temperature measurements over user-defined free-form areas; multiple ways for setting alarm thresholds, automatic flame front detection, and more, for the highest performance thermal monitoring and process management experience.
