Abstract:
A system of monitoring mass in a furnace is described having a number of hanger rods used to support at least a portion of the furnace. The system has at least one pressure sensor that may be a load washer operatively engaging a hanger rod that provides a signal indicative of an amount of tension on the hanger rod . A pivoting unit distributes the force over the surface of the pressure sensor . A processor monitors the signals from the pressure sensors to set alarms when there is a mass overload, or adjust the operation of the furnace. The processor may also predict when an overload will occur by extrapolating pressure sensor readings forward into the future.
