1 HOT ROLLING MILL

2 AMETEK LAND HAS BEEN MANUFACTURING PRECISION MEASURING EQUIPMENT SINCE WE ARE SPECIALISTS IN NON-CONTACT TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENT AND COMBUSTION MONITORING WITH APPLICATIONS ACROSS DIVERSE INDUSTRIES SUCH AS STEEL AND GLASS MAKING, POWER GENERATION AND CEMENT MANUFACTURE. As part of AMETEK Process & Analytical Instruments Division since 2006, our customers benefit from the worldwide AMETEK sales and service team. Accurate temperature measurement is critical for the production of high quality steels. AMETEK Land s non-contact infrared thermometers provide these accurate, non-invasive measurements at all critical positions through the hot rolling mill process. Many of our sensors are unique developments as requested by our customers. From specialized Spray Chamber Probes, Reheat Furnace systems to rugged Understrip probes, we offer choices of single point thermometers, scanners and process thermal imagers for all industry applications. AMETEK Land has the innovative and time-proven solutions for your temperature measurement needs. We focus our experience on designing new, innovative analyzers and systems that help our customers achieve the highest levels of productivity and quality. It is through this focus that we have created some of the most capable technologies in the world. Our primary focus in sensor design is reliability. We understand that you must have confidence that the measurements will provide the accurate information that you require when you need it. NON-CONTACT TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENT SENSORS ARE IDEAL FOR THE HOT ROLLING MILL Single point radiation thermometers, also referred to as Infrared Pyrometers, have been widely used in Steel Hot Rolling Mills for over 60 years. They offer many advantages compared to contact sensors such as thermocouples. They are installed at a distance and view the infrared radiation that is emitted by the target object. Their non-contact operation allows them to operate out of harm s way. Because they do not touch the surface, they can accurately measure moving objects, whereas a thermocouple would suffer from a frictional effect generating heat and eroding the thermocouple. Pyrometers also feature extremely fast response speeds of a few milliseconds, this makes them very useful for measuring fast moving strip or rod. PROCESS THERMAL IMAGING In today s world, markets require higher quality and companies expect improved profitability. Complete temperature measurement with line scanners and process thermal imagers provides a total picture of the product s temperature distribution. With this information more precise process control is possible resulting in improved quality products and satisfied customers.

4 NON-CONTACT TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENT HotSpotIR SPRAY CHAMBER PROBE FURNACE THERMOMETER Continuous infrared thermal line scanning detects small, hot inclusions on the coke conveyor. With alarms set to operate an inerting or diverting system to prevent expensive belt damage. Application specific design for continuous temperature measurements of steel in the spray chamber environment. Rugged, reliable and long-lasting. A high-resolution, fast thermal imager designed to provide detailed temperature information in harsh industrial environments. LINESCANNING LSP-HD UNDERSTRIP THERMOMETER NIR-BORESCOPE Don t just measure a strip when you can measure the whole product edgeto-edge. High resolution thermal images and profiles of slabs and strip. Understrip probes are excellent for strip temperature measurements where the top side is covered with water or is obscured. High resolution short wavelength process thermal imager. Easily mounted through the furnace wall. Accurate temperature measurements at all locations in the thermal scene. LINESCANNING NIR IMAGER Advanced family of full featured pyrometers. Analog and digital outputs. Integrated alignment, locally or remotely configured. High temperature, short wavelength process imager providing high resolution images. Used at the caster exit and crop shear. Thermal image and profile of slab at the straightener exit using the Landscan LSP-HD10. PROCESS IMAGING PROCESS IMAGING MODEL FG Short wavelength, high temperature fibre-optic pyrometer. Simple 2-wire, 4-20mA design. Industry standard for precise hand-held pyrometers. Real through-the-lens sighting and fully focusable optics provide highly accurate measurements with the assurance that you are measuring exactly what you are targeting.
