KRT RETENTION MEASUREMENT

Retention measurement system


for monitoring and control
KPM offers a retention measurement system for
paper machine retention monitoring and control.
KPM KRT retention package is applicable for
paper and board machines with or without ash
addition.
All needed hardware is included in the system
where separate configuration for headbox and
whitewater measurements are available. KPM
KRT retention package measures total consistency
of the headbox and whitewater sample.
Measurement range is 0–1.5% Cs. The
sensor measures fibers and particles from 0.01%
(100ppm) to 1.5%, (depending on type of stock).
The measuring principle is based on the ability
of fibers to depolarize light to a much greater
degree than denser solid particles.

Connection to headbox and whitewater


KPM KRT by-pass sensors are connected to the
headbox and the whitewater with sample valve
and PP sample line. The whitewater sensor
includes an automatic backflush valve that keeps
the sensor and sample line clean. The whitewater
sensor can also be equipped with a deaeration
device and a sample pump.
The sensors measure total consistency of the
sample and the consistency signals are
connected to DCS, where retention is calculated.

No maintenance needed
The sensor has a 3 mm gap between the lenses,
which produces a self-cleaning effect due to the
increased velocity. In addition, automatic flushing
with 3-way valves can be supplied to keep the
sensors clean without maintenance. Each sensor
can have four remotely selectable calibration
curves for applications with varying furnishes.

Robust design in SS316 steel


The sensor is constructed of 316SS with
unbreakable stainless steel sample funnel, making
the sensors withstand the most aggressive
media. The sensor pressure class is PN10.
The display unit and sensor have protection class
of IP65 (Nema 4X) and do not need protective
housing to stand difficult conditions at the paper
machine wet end.
