Kay von Rauchhaupt, plant engineer from the POX methane plant of the TotalEnergies refinery in Leuna, explains: “We quickly obtain accurate results and can store and archive videos and images as well as create inspection reports. To determine whether leak rates increase or remain constant multiple measurements can be performed. The camera allows operators to perform measurements from a safe distance, an advantage when working around dangerous gases.”
Distran cameras not only prevent unplanned downtime and preserve the health and safety of the workers in industrial plants, they also reduce the environmental air pollution by providing a fast and practical detection means of leaks.
On board the International Space Station ISS, the risk of a compressed air leak can take massive proportions, it is a real threat for the astronauts. Within industrial environments, in a leak in a line for compressed air, steam, CO2, CH4 or H2 can also be dangerous to life and limb in addition to a financial risk. – Article in German
