TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model belongs to infrared temperature measurement technical field, concretely relates to a non -contact infrared temperature measuring device of cold rolled galvanizing line zinc liquid. BACKGROUND
[0002] Because zinc has anticorrosive property, is usually used as strip steel plating material, zinc plating, zinc aluminum plating and hot galvanizing ( after heating galvanizing layer) are the most common several galvanizing modes, it can make steel surface form a layer of strong durable zinc layer to prevent strip steel corrosion and oxidation, the conventional production process is that after strip steel is annealed from annealing furnace, enters zinc pot through furnace nose and soaks zinc liquid ( zinc pot is generally electric heating zinc liquid), makes zinc liquid in zinc pot adhere to the surface of strip steel and form zinc layer, then dries after going out of zinc pot, in the galvanizing process, the accurate control of zinc liquid temperature in zinc pot is of great significance, too high zinc liquid temperature can lead to zinc liquid evaporation too fast, reduces plating layer thickness, and additionally increases energy consumption, simultaneously, high galvanizing temperature can also lead to the corrosion speed of zinc liquid to zinc pot and steel part to accelerate, makes zinc pot service life shorten, produces more zinc slag, increases zinc consumption, wastes energy, thereby makes production cost increase, and profit reduces, too low zinc liquid temperature can lead to zinc dissolution not enough, uneven plating layer, poor zinc backflow property causes the surface of strip steel not smooth, influences product quality, therefore, accurate measurement and control zinc pot temperature, ensure reasonable zinc pot temperature control range, it is the key link in hot galvanizing process.
