Probat thermal imaging cameras have extremely precise detection properties and are directly integrated into the roasting machine control system.
They guarantee consistently high product quality and maximum process reliability.
Probat’s cameras operate in the mid-infrared range and are particularly suitable for detecting incipient or imminent fires caused by embers in roasted coffee.
They enable a sensitive evaluation of temperature inhomogeneities or differences, and permanently monitor the entire bulk material surface formed by roasted coffee beans in the cooling sieve.
In the event of local overheating with temperatures above a defined limit value, suitable countermeasures can be initiated depending on the degree of overheating.
An alarm is triggered if the temperature is exceeded for at least three seconds.
