McFlow Engineering Solutions
Cement Industry
Cement plants operate in some of the harshest industrial environments with high temperatures, abrasive materials, and stringent emission norms. To ensure continuous production, energy efficiency, and compliance, reliable process instrumentation and flow control are essential.
McFlow Engineering supports the cement industry through application-driven solutions
“Your Project. Our Responsibility.”
Field Instruments for Accurate Process Monitoring
Level Measurement:
- Silo and hopper level transmitters for raw material, clinker, and cement storage.
- Radar/ultrasonic level sensors in pre-heaters and blending silos to prevent overflow and optimize raw mix feeding.
Flow Measurement:
- Mass and magnetic flowmeters for measuring fuel oil, coal dust, water, and additives.
- Air and gas flowmeters in burners and kiln systems for precise combustion control.
Pressure & Temperature Monitoring:
- Pressure transmitters in preheater cyclones, ESPs (Electrostatic Precipitators), and bag filters for process stability.
- High-temperature thermocouples and RTDs in kilns, coolers, and dryers to ensure optimal clinker formation
