Furnaces

A furnace borescope is used for real-time temperature measurement and imaging inside a furnace, aiding in process control and reducing energy consumption and emissions.

To address dust generated by raw ore material, two borescopes are installed per furnace for a clearer view of electrodes. Cracked electrodes can be quickly identified with thermal imaging, preventing costly furnace shutdowns.

Maintaining electrodes in peak condition is critical to avoid explosions during ore material addition. Neglecting their upkeep risks sudden, violent reactions, temperature fluctuations, and potential hazards. Rigorous inspection, regular maintenance, and prompt replacements are essential for safety in industrial furnace operations. 

AMETEK Land thermal borescopes are able to help monitor refractory wall damage at tap holes, seeing clearly through dusty and smoky atmospheres.
