Product Profile of Plaque Mounted Pyrometric Cones
Plaque Mounted Pyrometric Cones are used to determine the combined effect of temperature and time, usually called heat work in the firing of ceramic wares. These Pyrometric Cones ensure uniform rate of rise of temperature 150 Degree C per hour. These Pyrometric Cones are made from pure raw materials and are free from warping.
Plaque Mounted Pyrometric Cones are dimensionally accurate and can determine the degree of uniformity or firing treatment in various parts of the ware setting through the use of a number of suitably located plaques of cones.
Applications of Plaque Mounted Pyrometric Cones:
- To indicate the progress of firing, as the products approach maturity through the use of series of cones mounted to a suitable plaque and observed during firing
- To determine by observation of the cones, the end point of firing i.E. When full maturity of the product is reached
- To determine the degree of uniformity or firing treatment in various parts of the ware setting through the use of a number of suitably located plaques of cones
- To provide evidence of adverse atmospheric conditions during firing, as indicated by the color and /or temperature of the cone surfaces after firing
- In addition, small specially processed cones are used to classify the refractoriness that is Pyrometric cones
- Equivalent [P.C.E.] value of ceramic materials or products.
Key Features of Plaque Mounted Pyrometric Cones
- Pyrometric cones are used to determine the combined effect of temperature and time, usually called Heat work in the firing of ceramic wares
- The physical and chemical changes in the cones resulting in deformation are similar to those taking place in the ware being fired
- Machine made
- Dimensionally accurate
- Free from warping
- Made from pure raw materials
- Uniform rate of rise of temperature 150 Degree C per hour
- Carefully mounted on a suitable plaque
