Measuring points with extremely high process temperatures require these special thermometers with ceramic thermowells and thermocouples made from special metals, such as platinum and rhodium. The thermowell made from special materials serves as protection from mechanical and chemical damages in the process and increases the life span of the used sensors. This leads to: Cost savings for maintenance of the measuring point, quality improvements of the products and increased plant safety.
Applicable for steel treatment (annealing), concrete furnaces and primaries. It contains a single or double TC insert and a ceramic protection tube.
Process temperatures: up to +1600 °C (+2912 °F)
Benefits
Long lifetime by usage of innovative thermowell materials with increased wear and chemical resistance
Long term stable measurement due to sensor protection with non-porous materials
Flexible product selection by modular design
Optimized life cycle costs by means of replaceable spare parts
Iplom SpA sought to optimize its refining process to extend catalyst life and to increase safety in a hydrodesulfurization (HDS) application through precise 3D temperature profiling.
Instrumentation is available to perform temperature profiling in oil & gas, refining and petrochemical applications, but care must be taken during installation and use.
