Spark & hot-particle detection
Consider ignition sources moving through extraction and material-handling systems.
The principle
Water-based example. The response and extinguishing medium are selected for the application.
Follow the material flow
Grinding, drying and conveying can introduce ignition sources into connected processes. The review follows the material route through ducts, transfer points and collection equipment.
Detection suited to the application
Sensor selection and positioning depend on material, process environment and the ignition sources to be detected. Access, contamination and operating conditions belong in the design review.
Define the response
Detection can interface with a selected extinguishing arrangement, process stop or other agreed response. Timing, distances and equipment suitability must be established for the specific system.
Prevention and mitigation
Ignition-source detection complements the wider concept. Explosion venting, suppression and isolation remain subject to the application assessment.
