Furnace Camera HD Enables Clear, Direct Video Monitoring and Recoring of Various Steel-Making Processes....... New from Lenox Instrument Company
Trevose, PA, - Lenox Instrument Company has announced the addition of its next generation, high-temperature, video camera system specifically designed to be mounted directly through the wall of all types of industrial furnaces, heaters, or other combustion chambers. The new Furnace Camera HD provides steel mill engineers and operators clear, high-resolution images of burner flames, material alignment and movement inside the furnace, and other "high-heat" process conditions in iron and steel manufacturing.
Lenox Furnace Camera HD Systems are widely used by the steel and metals industry to view raw material, pellets and sintering operations, vacuum degassers, molten metal pouring stations, continuous casters, reheat furnaces, continuous annealers, galvannealers, and other steel finishing operations.
The Furnace Camera HD System's stainless steel camera housing mounts in a 3.5 inch (89 mm) opening and employs a steel triple wall laminar flow for efficient water-cooled protection of the CCD color camera and the latest optical lens technology, enabling operation in hostile environments up to 4250°F (2345°C). Models are available in 24 inch (61 cm), 31 inch (79 cm), and 36 inch (92 cm) lengths.
Lenox, high-temperature, Furnace Camera HD Systems are supplied with a NEMA 4 (IP66) junction/interface box that includes camera power supply, camera adjustment interface, RS170 analog video output, and termination and temperature readout for the provided temperature sensor that monitors internal camera housing temperature during operation. Ethernet or Fiber Optic outputs are also available as options. Furnace Camera HD Systems can be configured with a variety of lens options, including zoom capability.
Furnace Camera HD System accessories include an Automatic Retract System that pulls the camera back on loss of cooling, preventing over-temperature damage and a Monitoring Station to provide a local point of connection and status monitoring of coolant flow, purge air pressure, and electrical connections.
