R O L L E D S U R FA C E Q U A L I T Y A N D E N E R G Y S AV I N G S n SCALEMASTER HPS is fully compatible with all other SCALEMASTER nozzles (check overall length). No header modifications necessary. n Optimized stabilizer design reduces the spray footprint area (A) resulting in a higher impact. n An increased spray impact can lead to an improvement of the surface quality at no additional energy input. n A nozzle family providing higher impacts allows the use of a smaller nozzle size so that the impact can be maintained at a lower water flow and reduced energy cunsumption.

N O ZZ LE DATA When a descaling system is being designed the following nozzle performance parameters must be known: n The water flow rate at a given pressure n The spray width at a given vertical spray height (this defines the spray angle) n The spray impact and its distribution across the spray width The impact (also called impact pressure) is the momentum or force distribution over the spray foot print area. Therefore the impact can be defined as I = F/A I = Impact [N/mm ] F = Force [N] A = Area [mm ] When turbulent free descaling nozzles such as the Lechler SCALEMASTER HPS and lower spray heights are being combined, spray foot print thicknesses of only 3 mm become a challenge for the impact measurement facilities. Spray overlaps below 0mm also require a much higher precision of the spray width data. Only the new Lechler 3D impact measurement technology utilizing a sensor with only.0 mm diameter provides the resolution required for the design of an optimal nozzle arrangement. The impact distribution is measured and documented 3dimensionally throughout the entire spray in one sensor scan. The principle of impact measurement A pressure sensor passes through the spray jet at a defined speed and with defined movement. As it does so, the computer records the pulses in the jet and converts them into a threedimensional impact representation (see below). A = Area [mm ] Impact distribution against spray width Spray foot print diagram New impact measurement in operation 3D measurement protocol, impact measurement
O P T I M A L N E W N O Z Z L E A R R A N G E M E N T D E S C A L I N G S Y S T E M O P T I M I Z A T I O N System Study A descaling system study with the Lechler DESCALE software is a systematic and structured procedure for defining how an existing nozzle and header arrangement performs regarding the surface quality of the rolled product. Since 99 the Lechler DESCALE software has made crucial contributions towards increasing of surface quality and plant efficiency. Example of optimization with Lechler DESCALE software. The new Lechler DESCALE 7.X software The perfect tool to bench mark the performance parameters of the existing situation and to quickly design a new or optimized nozzle arrangement, no matter if billets, blooms, slabs or strips have to be descaled. For the first time and exclusively from Lechler the DESCALE 7.X can generate a nozzle arrangement for round billets and blooms. Lechler Descaling Pressure Gauge for precise pressure data With the new Lechler DESCA LING PRESSURE GAUGE the water pressure can be measured directly at the spray header in front of a descaling nozzle by simply taking one nozzle out and putting the pressure sensor in instead. With the exact value of the water pressure available at the nozzle a much more accurate simulation of the existing situation and the proposed modification can be made with the Lechler DESCALE software. It is also possible to detect potential pressure losses in the pipe work. Precise impact data For the DESCALE 7.X all nozzle types of all SCALEMASTER nozzle families have been impact measured with the new mm diameter sensor technology providing Lechler with the most accurate process data on the market.
