THE TECHNOLOGY
The Dust Monitor is an optical instrument designed to measure the concentration of dust or particulate matter in exhaust gas passing through a duct, stack or flue. It uses the innovative Dynamic Detection Principle (DDP) which measures fluctuations in the intensity of a light beam, using a folded beam Transceiver / Reflector arrangement. Increased dust or particulate density in the stack causes the amplitude of these fluctuations to increase. When calibrated against standard reference measurements, the amplitude of this signal relates directly to the dust concentration in the stack and this can be used to present as a reading in mg/m3.
APPLICATIONS
- Cement works
- Steel plants
- Air filtration processes such as electrostatic precipitators
- Other industrial applications with larger particle size and relatively high dust loading.
