Flue Gas Measurement and Combustion Efficiency
Typically, imbalance in the fuel/air mix results in incomplete combustion.
Heat is wasted due to the presence of excess air and harmful NOx
emissions are vented into the atmosphere.
Thermox improves your combustion
process by operating with
minimum excess air. Thermoxcombined
oxygen and combustibles
analyzers allow measurements
of oxygen and combustibles
and/or methane gases from a
single sample point. Once levels
are determined, the supply of
excess air can be controlled on a
continuous basis minimizing
NOx emissions, heat loss, and
incompletely burned fuel loss.
When combustion efficiency is
maximized, the process operation
is more cost-effective.
Thermox Site Survey Analysis
Thermox can demonstrate the fuel savings and emissions reduction
gained by measuring oxygen and combustibles by performing a site
survey analysis using a portable analyzer. Our service personnel along
with your operational assistance will perform air-to-fuel ratio step
testing to determine the safest, lowest excess O2 set point. Combustion
efficiency gain and NOx emissions reduction will be measured and
recorded. A report will detail opportunities to increase your combustion
efficiency and maximize fuel savings. In most cases, a pay-back
period of less than two months can be demonstrated for the combustibles
option. At the same time we can also evaluate the condition of
your existing Thermox analyzers and provide maintenance, retrofit and/
or new analyzer purchase suggestions.
IQ Links
Handheld or dedicated wall mount IQ Link terminals are also available.
The IQ Link provides a local interface using RS-232 communications to
set up and display system parameters, initiate calibrations, system tests,
and troubleshooting. With the handheld IQ Link you can disconnect and
reconnect to other IQ analyzers. The handheld and dedicated wall
mount unit also work in cooperation with the Series 2000 Host or RS247
gateway system capable of linking up to 32 analyzers via an RS-485 bus.
RS247
The RS247 (Remote Service 24-hour-a-day, 7-day- a-week) gateway
system enables Thermox to assume a proactive service-provider role that
fosters a closer working relationship with customers. It also provides
customers located anywhere around the world with direct access to
Thermox resources.
The RS247 gateway converts the RS-485 AMETEK protocol to an open
system HSE (High-Speed Ethernet) protocol. The RS247 gateway can be
set up on your Local Area Network and/or Wide Area Network allowing
plant- or company-wide access to all of your Thermox IQ and Series 2000-
based analyzers. Or, you can choose to access the RS247 gateway system
using the World Wide Web through your IT system or dial-up network
(local ISP). The system can send an E-mail to a primary, secondary and
tertiary list when a system alarm or event occurs. It also provides trending,
service and calibration history.
