Lumiglas®

Lumiglas – the observation of process operations taking place 

that is what lumiglas offers.

Lumiglas stands for sight and light ; for ideal visual control.

These inspections are carried out either by the process operative directly on the spot or without the need to access the plant, by means of the Lumiglas VISULEX Ex camera system. The combination of light and sight glass, created by Papenmeier- the first of many Lumiglas patents- is the ideal low cost solution for the user: the additional cut-out for a second sight port in the case of separate ports is avoided.

More security- less cost!

Lumiglas is internationally renowned and used by leading companies worldwide, particularly in explosion hazardous areas of the chemical, bio and pharmaceutical industries: mineral oil refining as well as foodstuffs and beverage industries, nuclear power plant, machine construction, electro industry, water treatment and shipbuilding.

Lumiglas means: 

Individually tailored resolution of problems; using economically attractive standard products or special designs to clients’ own specification. 

A closely woven network of agencies both in and out of the country ensures efficient customer and after sales service.

The Lumistar luminaire REL 01/REL 01-Ex is a complete unit ready for fitting. It is attached directly to the cover flange of a rectangular sight glass unit by means of two screws.

The REL01 unit has been designed to fit snugly into the side of rectangular / longitudinal sightglasses, length = 250 mm
The Luminaire REL 01 comes ready for fitting, 2 screws enable it to be bolted straight onto the cover flange of the longitudinal sightglass.

Compact design, high light output, low energy consumption:

21 special LEDs ensure dazzle-free illumination.

Together with the corresponding electronic switchgear, these LED are resin-cast into the stainless steel housing which is then secured to the rectangular fitting.

The service life of this luminaire is virtually unlimited; even if one of the diodes fails after a long period of operation, the remaining LED still provide more than enough light intensity.

Type of protection: Provided the luminaire has been properly installed, it is dust- and splash-proof, IP 65  acc. to DIN EN 60529/DIN VDE 0470 Part 1

Operating Voltage / Power: 24V / 2W

Where the Luminaire is to be used in explosion hazardous areas, connection must be to an intrinsically safe power supply circuit.

Lumiglas Ex Motor Drive EMA I-Ex EEx d IIC T5 / Biogas Sight Glass with Light, Wiper and Camera System

Versatile, high-performance Ex-class motor drive with compact dimensions for numerous applications

  • Special advantages of the Lumiglas Ex-class motor drive:
    Especially in environments that require the remote  monitoring of processes in reactors (e. g. biogas plants), ex-type cameras are frequently mounted on sight glasses, enabling process engineers to observe what is going on in the vessel from a central control room, which is frequently located at some distance from the reactor itself.

This eliminates the need for physical presence at a reactor, frequently entailing safety-relevant situations made more difficult by adverse environmental conditions, e. g. bad weather.

In certain processes, problems can arise if there are deposits of the substance in the reactor on the sight glass screen, thus making it difficult or even impossible for the camera to view the process. This can be remedied by using one of the proven wipers from the Lumiglas range: SW I and SWII. These wipers are normally operated by hand when the observer wants to inspect the reactor.

In many cases, however, the remote observation of reactors, e. g. via Lumiglas camera technology, is mandatory, making it essential to install a motor-driven wiper that can be actuated remotely from the control room.

The Ex motor drive EMA I-Ex has been developed specifically for such applications.

Because remote observation is mainly carried out in potentially
explosive environments, an Ex-class motor drive is now available in addition to the Ex camera

 

  • The Ex-class motor drive is mainly intended for operating wipers on sight glasses and is suitable for short- or long-term operation.
  • Especially in environments that require the remote monitoring of processes in reactors
  • Compact overall size; high turning moment; excellent motor power; low energy consumption.
  • Approved for use in potentially explosive environments, Zones 1 and 2 as well as 21 and 22
  • Approved for use in ambient temperatures of between -20°C and +50°C
  • Type of protection: Terminal connection and motor enclosure IP68, motor shaft IP54

Small dimensions, great effectiveness:

The Ex-class motor drive is designed for both short-term and continuous  operations.

All development targets have been achieved:

  • Compact overall size; high turning moment; excellent motor
    power; low energy consumption.
  • The Ex motor drive is thus ideally suited for operating, for
    instance, Lumiglas screen wipers:
    a) SW I (the wiper blade axis passes through a hole in the
    sight glass) – for low pressure
    b) SW II (the wiper blade axis is operated from the side
    through a hole in the sight glass fitting by means of a
    flexible shaft) – for higher pressure

Combination with a spray facility is also possible.

Structure of compact unit:

  • The unit is made up of a DC electric motor with a flanged drive and special coupling by way of which (e. g.) the wiper axis of a screen wiper is turned.
