Within the spray chamber exist very harsh and unfriendly environment.
Some of the common conditions/problems which exist inside the spray chamber are as follows:
AST’s pyrometer system “AST Concast” is designed in such a way that it can be easily installed in the spray chamber to view the strand between rolls. The system includes
Two Color Fibre Optic Pyrometer A450- C FO/PL/A250+/A450+ with 10mtr long fibre optic cable Two colour (Ratio) technique helps to overcome the inaccuracies due to atmospheric disturbances like Water vapor, Dust and Contamination on lens etc. Fibre optic system allows installing the pyrometer securely inside the control box away from the site which has high ambient conditions.
Digital output of the pyrometer is connected to temperature controller with Parameterizer so that all the parameters of the pyrometer can be set without the help of PC or laptop computer. Auxiliary output of 24 V DC from P120 is used to power the pyrometer. Hence the system is a Standalone and user friendly. Pyrometer has laser targeting light which can be turned ON/OFF via Programmer P120.
