The gas reversal and safety rack is designed fail safe. That means that in case of de-
energising the pilot solenoid valves the fuel shut-off valves will close automatically by spring
force. The venting valves between the main shut-off valves will open automatically by spring
force.
In normal kiln operation the manually operated shut-off valve, must be open.
The double block valves open and close cyclically in order to feed fuel gas to the burner
lances at the burning shaft.
The valves control the required gas flow.
These control valves can be set to either automatic or manual mode by the kiln operator.
The gas flow is measured by means of a vortex meter. The PLC converts the measured flow
using the pressure measuring instrument, and the temperature measuring instrument, , to a
flow expressed as normal flow (0C/1013 mbar base).
Fuel is fed to the burning shaft only during the fuel feeding time FFT.
A filter unit is arranged behind the main shut off valve (50 my).
4.1- Burner lances for natural gas (66 Pcs.) and equipments.(1 Set)
The burner lances are suspended from steel structures covered by protection boxes. The
length of the burner lances depends on the range of stone size to be burnt in the lime kiln.
The horizontal position of each single burner lance is well determined to achieve an optimal
distribution of fuel over the cross section of the shaft.
The burner lances can be changed from the outside of the kiln.
Fuel gas which is supplied by the gas reversal and safety rack arrives at the reversal valves at
a pressure of maximal 4.0 barg.
For each single burner lance two non return valves have been provided. One for fuel gas and
one for lance cooling air. For uniform fuel gas distribution through all lances, orifices are
installed, directly before entering the lance body.
Fuel gas is supplied to the burner lances only during the fuel feed time. During burn out time
and the kiln reversal the reversal valves are automatically closed.
Lance cooling air is provided by means of ring ducts at both kiln shafts. Similar as above for
fuel gas each burner lance is connected to that ring duct. The total amount of lance cooling
air is uniformly distributed by means orifice plates installed close to the burner lance
connection unit .
The inside diameter of the orifice plates must be adjusted to achieve a pressure approx. 400
mbarg at full kiln capacity.

cooling air to the lime kiln. This blower type supplies constant volumes of air, almost
independent from the pressure drop in the material column in the kiln shafts.
The blowers are mounted in a specially designed sound insulated concrete house with
soundproof doors. The air is aspirated into the blower room through a concrete channel via
silencers and filters.
Aspiration filters as well as suction and pressure silencers are installed on each blower.
Between each blower and the collection air ducts non-return and safety valves are installed.
Both in the combustion and cooling air ducts to the kiln shafts relief valves are installed to de-
pressurise the kiln during reversal periods.
All blowers with the exception of one combustion air blower and one lime cooling air blower
are driven by AC-motors with fixed speed. One combustion air blower as well as one lime
cooling air blower and one spare for both are driven by variable speed motors allowing
control of the air flow into the kiln depending on production rate and quality parameters set.
All air is aspirated into the blower house through a concrete channel. To prevent dust from
entering into the blower room an aspiration filter is installed in the concrete channel.
