Title
SEFPRO GUARD®: A digital and data-driven solution that meet the challenges of the glass industry
Description
By using new or alternative melting fusion processes for low CO₂ emissions in glass furnaces, there is a growing need to capitalize on know-how through digitalization and data-driven decision-making. This is more necessary than ever, and digital and data transformation can help strengthen organizations and sustain know-how.
Through our unique SEFPRO GUARD® web portal, you can stay connected to your glass furnace’s health care system in real-time. With this information, you can initiate maintenance operations and optimize your furnace performance.
SEFPRO GUARD® Tank monitoring
GOALS
• Allow the detection of critical corrosion in difficult-to-access areas
• Optimize maintenance operations schedule and execution, such as overcoating
• Reduce the risk of leakage
SEFPRO GUARD® Tank monitoring is a temperature measurement solution encapsulated in ceramic composite materials to ensure thermocouples protection and changeability. Each sensor is connected to an electrical cabinet where a computer transmits the data to a web application for post-treatment and analysis.
BENEFITS
• Prevent fatal accidents & costly outages with early detection of excessive refractory corrosion
• Extend furnace lifespan by keeping track of critical furnace areas
• Allow the detection of critical corrosion in difficult-to-access areas
• Optimize maintenance operations schedule and execution, such as overcoating
• Reduce the risk of leakage

SEFPRO GUARD® Regenerator monitoring
GOALS
• Continuously monitor checkerpacks
• Assess regenerator clogging levels in real-time
• Initiate preventive checkerpack cleaning operations
• Extend the lifetime of regenerators
Our automated visualization system allows you to continuously monitor the clogging of the CRUCIFORMS® in the regenerators. With a powerful image analysis process, you are able to follow the regenerator clogging level and initiate maintenance operations. By keeping the regenerators perfectly clean, you will obtain the very high thermal performance provided by our CRUCIFORMS® range.
BENEFITS
• Extended regenerator lifetime by early detection of abnormal plugging
• Reduced operating costs by optimizing cleaning schedule and procedures
• Continuously monitor checkerpacks
• Assess regenerator clogging levels in real-time
• Initiate preventive checkerpack cleaning operations
