    What can you expect of the measurement with McON Air ?

    The McON Air Compact flow measurement system is a single channel solution which works according a patented correlation principle. The system measures the time of flight of unique signal patterns created by particles contained in the gas. Because the principle is time based it is accurate and drift free over the entire lifetime.
    • Reliable measurement of dust laden gases
    • Temperature range up to 1000 °C/1800 °F
    • Drift free - no calibration, no purging
    • Virtually no maintenance
    • Turn down ratio up to 25
    • No K-Factors - direct time of flight measurement
    • Hot tapping solution for full plant availability
    • Even for emission monitoring: Most accurate measurement of the total stack flow

    The big challenge in the cement industry

    The cement industry faces a monumental challenge - the sheer energy intensity of production. A staggering 40% of the energy within a plant is consumed solely during the grinding processes. Even with the adoption of efficient vertical roller mills, there is still room for improvement, and that improvement begins with precise and reliable measurement.

    Precision in the Midst of Heat and Dust

    Navigating the searing heat and dusty environment of cyclone preheater towers, rotary kilns, and clinker coolers demands unparalleled precision. Our cutting-edge measurement technology operates seamlessly even in these extreme conditions. By enabling faster, more accurate, and low-maintenance measurements of the hot and dusty gases, we unlock vast potential for combustion optimization.

    Unleashing the Potential

    With our advanced measurement solutions, we revolutionize the way cement production is optimized. Imagine a scenario where every aspect of the production process is finely tuned for efficiency. Our technology allows for the swift and precise measurement of gases, providing real-time data that paves the way for superior control mechanisms.
