The system provides accurate, continuous measurement of liquid hot-metal level under high temperatures, dust and fumes. It uses FMCW technology with a high-frequency radar level sensor that offers strong penetration, a narrow beam angle and high interference resistance.
Advantages:
Non-contact measurement.
Resistance to high temperatures and dust.
Automatic data processing and alarms.
Long service life with minimal maintenance.
High accuracy through echo processing and false-reflection filtering.
Reliable operation in extreme conditions with purging and cooling.
Continuous monitoring with on-screen display and data export.
- Fully automated measurement with critical-state alarms.
Hot-Metal Level Measurement System
- Exima PRO supplies high-precision radar systems for continuous monitoring of liquid hot-metal level and develops custom engineering solutions for metallurgical plants.
- Solutions include:
- Radar level sensors with cooling systems.
- Control and data-visualization cabinets.
- Complete systems for blast-furnace production.
Application:
Installed in the upper section of a blast furnace to measure burden level using radar waves.
Operating Principle:
The radar emits a directed high-frequency wave that reflects from the material surface and returns to the receiver. Signal-processing algorithms reject false echoes caused by dust, smoke and temperature interference, providing stable, accurate readings in demanding blast-furnace conditions.
