Temperature Monitoring in a Dryer

Temperature Monitoring in a Dryer

Application

Temperature monitoring in a dryer

  • Temperature monitoring at various drying stages
  • Distance from the first measurement point to the control room is approx. 130 meters.
  • Switchover of existing temperature monitoring system from off-line to on-line.

Challenges

  • Manual temperature reading requires walking about 130 m and climbing up and down elevated sections of the dryer stages.
  • Multiple temperature measurement points along the various stages of the dryer require many cables to the control room.
  • Very high humidity.

Solutions

  • Wireless temperature measurement
    Gateway x1, Transmitter (YTA) x2 at measuring points near the dryer entry point, repeater x2 (for redundancy).
  • High quality wireless communication was confirmed.
    The PER (packet error rate) was 0%.

Benefits

  • Reduced maintenance costs.
  • Robust communication with lower packet error rates.

Industrie

  • Chemical

    Chemical plants rely on continuous and batch production processes, each posing different requirements for a control system. A continuous process calls for a robust and stable control system that will not fail and cause the shutdown of a production line, whereas the emphasis with a batch process is on having a control system that allows great flexibility in making adjustments to formulas, procedures, and the like. Both kinds of systems need to be managed in available quality history of product, and to be able to execute non-routine operations. With its extensive product portfolio, experienced systems engineers, and global sales and service network, Yokogawa has a solution for every plant process.
