Challenges for

Sensor highlights and customized analysis
technology from SICK
The cement sector plays an important role within the building materials industry. Productivity and product quality are the decisive factors on the international stage. The cement industry, with its high
level of energy and raw materials use, is particularly concerned
with conserving natural resources and protecting the global climate.
Cement plants are therefore equipped with the most modern sensors and analyzer systems in order to meet market requirements
for quality and cost efficiency. By providing intelligent solutions,
SICK has proven itself in all areas of cement production – from the
extraction of raw materials to the distribution of the end product.

Emission measurement

Quality control

Service

The cement industry continuously
monitors emission levels in order to
ensure environmentally friendly production. SICK’s analysis technology
provides the process control center
with all required values from the
measured components. These values
can then be further processed in an
emission data acquisition system if
required.

SICK offers an intelligent, rugged
rotary kiln inlet measurement solution for monitoring clinker production.
As when measuring emissions, it is
also important here to reconcile high
measurement availability with low
maintenance cost.

SICK is a single source for a complete range of services – expert
advice, skilled planning services,
detailed project planning and engineering, installation, and commissioning. We also provide reliable
post-sales maintenance and repair
support.

Optimum material flow

Machine safety

Plant monitoring

Materials such as coal, rock, and
clinker are valuable. Accurately
determining stored or transported
quantities is vital for ensuring optimum production flow. SICK’s level
sensors and volume measurement
systems make it possible to manage
storage and transport in order to
match requirements.

Whether on the packaging machine
or when palletizing cement bags,
safety solutions from SICK ensure
operator safety, optimize production,
reduce the machine footprint, and
minimize downtimes.

Monitoring the electrostatic precipitator to prevent explosion due to the
sudden buildup of an excessive concentration of CO is just as much a
part of the proven complete solution
as monitoring the coal bunker for
smoldering fire.

Process monitoring and precipitator protec- ▸
tion measurement at the preheater
The composition of the exhaust gas at the
outlet of the preheater provides information
about the progression of the burning process, as well as indications of an imminent
risk of explosion for the downstream electrostatic precipitator. To acquire this information, changes in the concentration of the gas
components CO, NO, O2, and, if applicable,

SO2, are measured at the preheater. The occurrence of high CO peaks in the exhaust gas
indicates a risk for the downstream electrostatic precipitator. The MAC800 extractive
analyzer system with the GMS800 gas analyzer is suited to this measurement task involving high dust loading, the gas temperatures, and the space limitations. This system
enables reliable process gas monitoring, thus
providing an economical solution for increasing plant efficiency and safety

Monitoring the coal bunker
The coal dust used as fuel is stored in bunkers. Coal bunkers present the risk of smoldering fires in which CO can accumulate to
form explosive mixtures with the air. By performing continuous measurement of the CO
concentration, smoldering fires can be identified at an early stage (due to the rise in CO)
and handled in a timely manner. In addition,

smoldering fires. The MKAS Compact analyzer system with an Ex-protected sampling
probe is the ideal solution. The integrated
SIDOR gas analyzer allows the simultaneous
measurement of CO and O2 and can be adjusted using ambient air. This sophisticated
system provides the reliability needed for
safety-related measurements.

◂

Monitoring CO and O2 to protect the coal mill
Coal dust is a commonly used fuel for cement kilns. Inert gas is introduced into the
coal mill to prevent fires. A rise in the O2 concentration indicates a leak and the entry of
air. By performing continuous O2 measurement, leaks can be identified early and handled in a timely manner. If required, CO measurement can be extended to detecting

O2 measurement can be integrated in order
to monitor inert gas. The MKAS Compact analyzer system with an Ex-protected sampling
probe is the ideal solution. The integrated
SIDOR gas analyzer allows the simultaneous
measurement of CO and O2 and can be adjusted using ambient air. The long maintenance intervals reduce operating costs.
