When it comes to HVAC temperature measurements, a single point sometimes is not enough. An averaging RTD measures temperature along a duct or across a sectional area, resulting in more accurate information about the overall conditions inside HVAC units. …
People, machinery, and products are best if they’re kept within a certain temperature range. Too much heat is especially a concern for equipment and perishables. That's why ambient temperature monitoring should be high on an industrial plant's to-do list. When …
Thermowells protect temperature sensors from harsh media. On the downside, these fittings increase the thermal response time. Therefore, knowing precisely what that response time is becomes a key factor in controlling processes and systems. In the real …
A major U.S. refiner was disappointed with the performance of its thermocouple arrays in hydrotreaters, as the cheaper sensors failed after almost every turnaround. WIKA solved the problem by replacing the old sensors with the high-performance Gayesco Flex-R ® …
Thermocouples are hardworking temperature sensors found in many industrial applications. Find out what thermocouples are, how they work, and why they are so popular. Thermocouples are electrical devices used to measure temperature. Their accuracy, rapid …
