Durag’s Orfeus video system allows direct and touch free online observation, evaluation and measurement of various high temperature processes. Operators are supplied with coloured pictures and data to successfully control the process. On-line evaluation is possible, including the required data pertaining to time and location. Any changes in the process can be documented, analysed and subjected to quality assurance testing as and when necessary.
Water and or air-cooled stainless steel lances are deployed for data recording in the hot areas of the process. The endoscope, built into the end of the lance, is used as a lens for the CCD camera and has a protective housing. In order to represent the temperature distribution within the observation area, the video picture is transformed into a pseudo-colour picture.
A specially designed flange may be used in order to mount the lance. Alternatively, it may be automatically displaced forward and backward by using a special retracting device. Monitoring circuits prevent the components from overheating.
Picture analysis is carried out on a Linux operated system in the process control room. Process signals can be acquired directly via a Profibus interface or wired input boards and the relevant data and pictures will be displayed on a screen via a monitoring interface.
