Precision in Off-Gas Measurement for Steel Production
LOMAS, or the Low Maintenance gas Analyzing System, is a specialized process gas analyzing system developed to deliver precise gas analyses for very hot and dust-laden off-gases in steel plants. Traditional gas analysis methods often struggle to provide accurate data due to the complexity and harshness of these environments. LOMAS effectively addresses these challenges by offering reliable and accurate data through its patented probe design and advanced gas sampling techniques.
The LOMAS gas analysis system offers a robust and precise method for analyzing off-gas in various metallurgical processes. It continuously samples process gases, which are then prepared and analyzed using adaptive, process-dependent analyzers. This ensures optimal performance and safety by detecting dangerous situations early and providing detailed process data for optimization. The system's modular design allows for plant-specific configurations, ensuring maximum efficiency and benefit. Equipped with advanced sensors and patent-protected sampling devices, the off-gas analyzing system guarantees high operational safety and long service life.
Particularly beneficial for LD converters (BOF) and electric arc furnaces (EAF), the LOMAS delivers precise gas analysis and real-time data, and enhances process control and safety, ensuring that every process meets the highest standards of efficiency and safety. It provides critical insights that allow for immediate corrective actions and continuous improvement in production processes.
With its precision in off-gas measurement, it sets new standards in the industry, offering a powerful solution to the challenges of modern steel production. This system enables plants to maintain optimal operational conditions, improve product quality, and ensure the strictest safety standards, making it a vital component in the pursuit of excellence in steel manufacturing. The system supports roles such as quality control managers, process engineers, and safety officers.
