| Cement Build-ups
and Snowmen Problem: Ring Build-ups have developed in certain areas of the kiln. Pneumat Solution: Place base sockets at a 35º to 45º angle in these spots and use Cardox to blast out the build-ups. Then rotate the kiln to see if all the build-up releases. If it doesn't, then repeat the same procedure on opposite of the original base sockets. If there is no way to see where the build-ups are located, use a temperature sensor gun to find the hot spots and weld on a base socket there to use a Cardox blast to eliminate the build-up. Problem: Shotgun method isn’t working effectively. Pneumat Solution: Using Cardox at the proper tube depth in these spots won’t take out any refractory or remove any problems. Using a shotgun at one end of the kiln to shoot ring build-ups makes them return bigger and more frequently after doing this. The shooting is actually taking out some refractory around the build-up as well. So hotspots get bigger, which makes the build-ups larger and more frequent. If the kiln is really bad about rings choking off flow, lines of sockets can be placed on the kiln. Problem: There is a snowman building-up within the cooler. Pneumat Solution: With Pneumat’s Cardox Prolongation Tube, snowmen can be reached and eliminated with ease. We can show you how to use this special tool or you can have TeamPneumat take care of the situation. |
