APX300

The APX300 system has been designed to prevent cyclone plugging which is one of the major causes of production downtimes. The APX300 plugging detection device consists of a set of appliances, a generator and X-ray detector, which are positioned on opposite sides of the system controlled. The signal emitted by the generator travels across the gap to the receiver which in turn picks up and processes the signal.
