Multipoint Thermocouples: The Ideal High Temperature Sensors for Ammonia Applications
Alina Green | TemperatureTemperature measurement and monitoring are critical for processes that synthesize ammonia for nitrogen fertilizer production. WIKA USA’s multipoint thermocouple assemblies feature high temperature sensors designed to withstand the harsh condition of ammonia …
Prevent Hydrocracking Runaways with the Gayesco Flex-R® Multipoint Thermocouple
Robert Torgerson | TemperatureThermal runaways in hydrocracking processes are a serious concern for refiners. Comprehensive, real-time temperature monitoring is critical to preventing runaways, which is why most hydrocrackers across the world are equipped with Gayesco Flex-R ® multipoint …
Avoid Expensive False Trips with Reliable Thermocouple Assemblies
Robert Torgerson | TemperatureA false trip is when an instrument error, rather than an actual problem, sets off (“trips”) a safety alarm. All plant operators want to avoid false trips, especially the ones that lead to a full process shutdown – a very expensive scenario. WIKA’s SIL III …
Industrial Thermocouple Repair and Replacement
Robert Torgerson | TemperatureA thermocouple has no moving parts and is extremely robust. However, thermocouples do lose accuracy over time and can become damaged by overheating during use or by human error. With a TC96-R thermocouple assembly, you enjoy the flexibility of thermocouple replacement …
