One of the major challenges in process plant instrumentation is the achievement of reliable gas analysis.

FLSmidth Automation´s subsidiary, FLS Airloq, has developed a range of systems characterised by high accuracy, reproducibility and minimal maintenance. There is a complete range of equipment for analyzing gases at temperatures up to 1300ºC. Highly effective harsh-environment protection is incorporated to ensure long-term reliability of the equipment supplied based on our many years of experience.

FLS Airloq's gas analysis systems have proved their worth across a broad spectrum of industrial processes, including cement, lime, minerals, power plants and waste incineration. The emission analysis equipment is able to fulfil the demand set by legislation in countries around the world. Together with ECS/StackGuide emission reporting and calculation system Continuous Emission Monitoring (CEM) is guaranteed regardless of reference legislation involved (EPA, EU).

FLSmidth Automation's CemScanner and GrateScanner exploit infra-red line scanner technology to measure rotary kiln shell and grate-cooler clinker temperatures, enabling kiln operators to better supervise and fine-tune kiln system operation.
