FIRED HEATERS & FURNACES

CANTY's high temperature camera systems are installed on Fired Heaters and Furnaces to obtain video during operation. This video is fed into CANTY's Smart Tube software to monitor TMT's, identify hot spots, and even track the position of individual tubes as they shift over time.

FIRED HEATERS AND FURNACES

Cracking furnaces are used in a variety of applications such as the production of ethylene, hydrogen, vinyl chloride monomer (VCM), and ammonia. In each of these processes, it is important to measure the the temperatures of the tubes in which the reaction is occurring. This measurement is widely known as tube metal temperatures (TMT’s). CANTY’s high temperature camera systems are installed on these furnaces to obtain video during operation. This video is fed into CANTY’s Smart Tube software to monitor TMT’s, identify hot spots, and even track the position of individual tubes as they shift over time.

FLARE CAMERAS

Oil & Gas Overview:

The CANTY UltraTemp™ is a vision-based camera system used with the CantyVision™ to monitor the flares inside an enclosed ground flare unit.

FLARE CAMERA – ULTRATEMP

The CANTY UltraTemp™ is a vision-based camera system used with the CantyVision™ to monitor the flares inside an enclosed ground flare unit. The CantyVision™ software accurately measures smoking conditions as well as pilot in the flare for complete control. In comparison to thermocouples which are costly, not reliable, and monitor only one tube, a camera system can monitor multiple tubes at the same time. The CantyVision™ software can output a signal to alarm if the flare has a smoking condition over a certain time to an operator screen, PLC, or DCS for closed loop control. The system can then record video and take images according to EPA regulations. Video and images can be stored. By mounting into the ground flare wall the electronics are protected by the fused glass from the temperatures of upset conditions. The spray ring is provided to have clean instrument air passing through it to keep the lens clean and free from debris. No need for a pole where any maintenance can become a problem and very costly. By mounting in the wall, the flare camera can be accessed from the safe side of the flare wall.

A flare is used to dispose of flammable material by combustion. Ground flares can be a replacement for a single stack flare for companies. The multi-point ground flares (MPGF) need to be monitored by a camera per EPA regulations. A video camera that is capable of continuously recording (i.e., at least one frame every 15 secs with time and date stamps) images of the flare flame.

FREE WATER & TSS IN LNG

Oil & TSS in Water:

CANTY manufactures analyzers designed for the inline measurement of the concentrations and particle size and shape distributions of water and total suspended solids (tss) in LNG lines.

FREE WATER & TSS IN LNG

CANTY manufactures analyzers designed for the inline measurement of the concentrations and particle size and shape distributions of water and total suspended solids (tss) in LNG lines. Changes to temperature and pressure result in changes to the amount of water that can dissolve in this fluid. As such, making the measurement reliably and inline is critical to ensuring that free water does not damage equipment in your process. Other technologies require samples to be brought to a lab, can be influenced by different kinds of contaminants, and don’t reflect the same information that they would otherwise measure under the actual process conditions.

FUELS & BIODIESEL

Lube Oil & Fuel Overview:

CANTY specializes in many FUEL applications. Some of the applications include water / solids in fuel monitoring.

JET FUEL – INFLOW

The CANTY Inflow™ is a vision-based camera system monitoring for water in jet fuel and particles in jet fuel in a lab environment / at-line / in-line process. The presence of these two physical contaminants is dangerous to aircraft fuel systems and engines, and compromises safety. The CantyVision™ Software accurately measures multiple aspects of the jet fuel from water / solids / gas independent of each other for accurate data. In comparison to a laser, which measures only one dimension and can’t identify the difference of water and solids in the stream, the CantyVision™ software can identify the differences. The customer can also visually verify the readings. Fuel contamination takes place mainly in transportation and storage. The current method of measuring jet fuel is the subjective visual inspection test. CANTY objectively takes the measurement and reports based on a two dimensional image. Color / HAZE / Solids / Water are all measured and continuously and objectively monitored. By knowing whether there is a water or solids problem this helps the operators identify how to fix the problem. The Inflow™ is an in-line analysis system to make sure production samples are not skipped over!

JET FUEL

Lube Oil & Fuel Overview:

Using the ASTM D8049 & D7596 methods, the CANTY Inflow™ is a vision-based camera system used with the CANTY Vector System image processor for JET FUEL concentration and size measurement in a lab environment / at-line (Short Loop Sampler) / in-line process. The CantyVision™ Software accurately measures multiple aspects of the JET FUEL from water/ solids / gas independent of each other for accurate data.

LUBE OIL ANALYSIS

Lube Oil & Fuel Overview:

Particles in lubricating and hydraulic oils are detrimental as they increase wear, clog filters, and accelerate oil degradation. Particle analysis assesses the capability of an online filtration system to clean the oil, and determines if off-line re-circulation filtration is required to clean the fluid, or whether a complete fluid change out is necessary. A high level of wear particles within the fluid is indicative of an impending component failure. Predictive maintenance by periodic lubrication oil analysis can be used to predict and prevent such failures.

OIL IN WATER

Oil & Gas Overview:

CANTY specializes in OIL IN WATER monitoring. CANTY can detecting the oil droplet size as well as concentration independent of solids or gas.

SHORT LOOP SAMPLER – (OIL IN WATER / WATER IN OIL) ANALYZER

The SHORT LOOP SAMPLER™ Oil In Water Analyzer / Water In Oil Analyzer combining sampling point and the INFLOW™ Process Particle Analyzer, provides real time concentration and particle size analysis. The SHORT LOOP SAMPLER™ allows operators and skid manufacturers to test multiple point in their line using only one analyzer and verify the results by using the sample point to verify reading in the lab. Models measure 0.7 micron – 20,000 micron particles under process conditions. By continuously measuring the product OIL, WATER, SAND, and GAS the OiW / WiO concentration and size is output 30 frames a second. This allows the user to see the impact of any change to the refining or drilling system. By using a vision based system CANTY can easily detect all phases and separate them to give PPM/PPB distribution as well as SIZE distribution of all particulates. The system is designed to continuously sample from the center of the process stream and input the entire sample back into the stream so there is no loss of product when analyzing for concentration or particle size.

Min Fluid Velocity: 3 ft/s (If lower consult factory)

Max Fluid Velocity: 15 ft/s

TANK FARM

Oil & Gas Overview:

Monitor phase split in batch mode on organic droplets for increased product recovery.

INTERFACE CONTROL

Interface control is crucial for ensuring that different components of a system or project can interact effectively and predictably. CANTY’s Image System for Continuous Interface Measurement is key for defining and managing the boundaries and interactions between interfaces. By controlling interfaces, projects can avoid costly rework, delays, and integration problems, ultimately leading to a more successful and efficient outcome.

JM Canty

Canty is an outgrowth of the consulting practice of John M. Canty, P.E. in designing a very deep high pressure Diving Research Facility, capable of simulating ocean depths of over a mile, he found that no lighting components were available which would withstand the required pressure of 2500 PSI. It was, therefore, necessary to develop a light that would permit illuminating the chamber at these unusual conditions. Since this vessel (now installed in the high pressure laboratory of the University at Buffalo-Department of Physiology) was to be used for manned experiments, it was desirable to keep the electrical components outside. This is due to the potential fire hazard of electrical sparks in a confined environment.
