Metsä Board Husum to install online system Intellinova Parallel EN in pulp mill

After a test period, Swedish pulp and board mill Metsä Board Husum has decided to invest in online condition monitoring of production-critical equipment in its fiber line and has chosen the Intellinova Parallel EN online system.

SPM Instrument's Intellinova Parallel EN online system is a high-performance and powerful sixteen-channel system for parallel vibration and/or shock pulse measurement. The system supports the patented condition monitoring technologies HD ENV and SPM HD, providing maximum pre-warning time for deteriorating mechanical condition.

When the Husum plant installs its first online monitoring units, the installation will include a total of six Intellinova Parallel EN units and sixty-four DuoTech accelerometers, which effectively combine vibration and shock pulse measurement in the same sensor. The systems will monitor parts of drying machines 4 and 5, as well as high-pressure and low-pressure feeders, wash presses, and certain screening equipment. All machines are considered low-speed.

Metsä Board Husum is an integrated board and pulp mill producing fresh fiber folding boxboard and white kraftliner on the board machines BM1 and BM2.
