Real-time modular furnace monitoring

Your furnace,
finally visible.

Polymorphic by design. One system, infinite configurations.

Furnatek turns the inside of a live furnace into measurable data. Modular thermal cameras stream tube‑wall temperatures, flame profiles and alerts in real time - so your team acts before a failure, not after.

The blind spot

Running a furnace you can’t see
is running on borrowed time.

Inside an operating furnace, the conditions that destroy tubes and burners are invisible from the outside. By the time a problem shows on a gauge - or on the floor - the damage is already done.

Hidden hot spots

Localized overheating creeps along tube walls unseen until a rupture forces an emergency shutdown.

Unplanned downtime

A single failure can take a unit offline for days - lost production that dwarfs the cost of the tube itself.

Manual spot checks

Walk‑by inspections capture a moment, not a trend. Events between rounds go completely unrecorded.

People at risk

Every manual reading near a live furnace puts personnel close to extreme heat and pressure.

How it works

From inside the fire
to your screen - in real time.

Furnatek is modular by design. Cameras scale to the furnace, stream continuously, and turn raw heat into decisions your team can act on.

Furnace & camera array · 3D model
01

Mount modular cameras

Ruggedized thermal cameras install at multiple elevations around the furnace, each watching a defined region of tubes and burners.

Multi‑elevationScalable array
02

Stream & analyze live

Every camera feeds continuous tube‑wall temperatures and flame profiles into the Furnace Manager, mapped to a live model of the unit.

Act on alerts

Thresholds trigger instant alerts. Operators calibrate, inspect, and intervene early - turning a would‑be failure into a routine adjustment.

The hardware

Engineered to live
on the furnace wall.

Each Furnatek unit is a ruggedized thermal-imaging camera built to sit inches from extreme heat and keep watching - continuously, safely, for years.

  • Thermal imaging coreReads tube-wall temperature and flame profile across a whole region - not a single point.
  • Mounted at every elevationUnits fix to the furnace structure so each critical zone has a dedicated, fixed field of view.
  • Sealed for the plant floorBuilt to shrug off heat, vibration and electromagnetic interference in a working chemical plant.
  • Fiber-linked & secureFeeds the one-way fiber data diode, so readings leave the unit without ever opening a path back in.
The platform

One screen for the
whole furnace.

The Furnace Manager maps every camera to its real position on the unit. Status, temperature and live feeds - all in a single operational view.

Capabilities

Everything you need to keep
the unit running hot - and safe.

Modular camera array

Add cameras as the furnace demands - every elevation, every critical region covered.

Real‑time tube temps

Continuous tube‑wall temperature against setpoint, mapped to the live unit model.

Flame & burner profiles

See burner behavior and flame shape - not just a single thermocouple reading.

Instant alerts

Threshold alarms surface over‑temperature and anomalies the moment they occur.

Guided calibration

Calibrate cameras and regions in‑app, with snapshot history and audit trail.

PLC & controls ready

Integrates with plant controls so monitoring lives alongside your existing systems.

Why it pays off

Protect the asset.
Protect the uptime.
Protect your people.

Protect assets

Catch creeping hot spots before they rupture a tube - extending the life of the most expensive parts of the furnace.

Maximize uptime

Move from reactive shutdowns to planned interventions. Early signal means fewer surprises and longer runs.

Safeguard people

Replace manual readings at the furnace face with remote, continuous visibility from a safe distance.

Furnatek Analytics · the cloud companion

Every inspection, every region,
every trend - in the cloud.

What the Furnace Manager sees on‑site, Furnatek Analytics remembers in the cloud. Browse datasets, replay inspections, chart per‑region temperature trends, review alarms and export to CSV.

Secure by design

A hardware data diode.
One way out. No way back.

Furnace data leaves the plant through a one-way fiber-optic data diode. Information flows out to analytics - but nothing can travel back in. The control network stays physically sealed, enforced by hardware, not software.

Transmit only (TX)

Cloud receiver

Receiver · Machine B

Physical one-way enforcement

Transmit- and receive-only optical modules are distinct and non-interchangeable. Direction is guaranteed by construction, not configuration.

Total isolation

Fiber optics are immune to electromagnetic interference and resist physical tapping - fully isolating the control network from outside threats.

Encrypted & verified

Every message is encrypted at the application level and carries a CRC integrity check, so intercepted or corrupted data is meaningless and discarded.

Event-driven & scalable

Files transmit the moment they are ready over a lightweight one-way protocol, and the design extends easily to new data sources.
