Safety upgrades for PILZ coke drying ovens
Safe burner retrofit for sustainable chemical production
PILZ After a complete retrofit of the carbide furnace, the gas supply system of the coke drying furnace was also modernized to meet current safety regulations. The modifications included not only hardware, but also safety-related software and its configuration, as well as the connection of sensors and actuators provided by the factory. It even included equipment acceptance. The safety controller's task is not easy: in the event of a problem, it must not only monitor the extinguishing of the flame and interrupt the gas supply if necessary, but also safely handle many other complex steps in the shutdown system process chain. Now, the safe burner management system PNOZmulti 2 Burner can accomplish these tasks. As a complete solution, this burner can control all burner safety-related tasks in the coke drying furnace 。
Unique multi-functional solution for burner management
PILZ small controller PNOZmulti 2 Burner can now control and monitor the safety chain, combustion air pressure, ignition and flame formation. The "burner" also reliably monitors the tightness of the water supply lines, safety valves, ignition valves and exhaust valves, as well as the combustion air fan. For this purpose, multiple modules are used in the device, connecting a total of 40 safety digital inputs, 4 analog inputs and 12 digital outputs to the installed safety valves, sensors and actuators. The fieldbus module communicates via Profibus communication protocol with the high-standard controller of the equipment. This ensures that safety-related autonomous operations can also be performed in the operating controller. Pilz 's operating terminal PMI ensures minimal downtime and fast fault detection. All installation work was completed in just over one day: the hardware was planned and the entire switching system was provided, including a pre-installed and assembled control cabinet, making it a perfect complete solution for the user. Pilz Hardware planning has been carried out and the entire switching system is provided, including a pre-installed and assembled control cabinet. The complete solution for users is very perfect.
