DEVICE FOR DETECTING RISKS OF BLOCKAGE OF A CYCLONE IN THE MANUFACTURE OF CEMENT

摘要

Device for detecting risks of blockage of a cyclone (10) in the manufacture of cement comprising an electromagnetic wave emitter (28) and an electromagnetic wave sensor (30). The emitter is suitable for emitting electromagnetic waves through the cyclone and the sensor is suitable for capturing the electromagnetic waves attenuated after crossing the cyclone so as to detect the presence of clusters resulting from the accumulation of material in the cyclone or the blockage thereof. The device is characterized in that the electromagnetic waves are microwaves.
