The NIR-Borescope-2K-Glass (NIR-B-2K-Glass) is a short-wavelength radiometric infrared borescope imaging camera, designed to produce high definition (1968 x 1476 pixels) thermal images, along with providing accurate temperature measurements from any of the three million temperature points in the image. The camera measures temperatures in the range 1000 to 1800 °C (1832 to 3272 °F) and is suitable for float glass, container glass, borosilicate glass, and fibre glass melt furnaces. ACCURATE TEMPERATURE PROFILING With the NIR-Borescope-2K-Glass, it is possible to accurately and continuously profile the temperature of the entire furnace, including glass, refractory walls and port arches, and the crown/roof, with only a small opening in the wall. Thermal imaging inside refractory-lined furnaces, boilers and glass melt tanks normally requires the plant operator to cut large openings in the refractory to enable viewing of the critical area. This can cause significant wasted energy from heat loss and can be difficult to keep the opening free from debris. The NIR-B-2K-Glass only requires a small diameter hole through the furnace casing and refractory to accommodate the wide-angle lens tip. CONTINUOUS FURNACE MONITORING The NIR-Borescope-2K-Glass offers significant advantages over the traditional methods of furnace monitoring. With the NIR-B-2K-Glass, it is possible to accurately and continuously profile the temperature of the entire furnace, including glass, refractory walls and port arches, and the crown/roof, with only a small opening in the wall.
