Even the best laboratory tests cannot duplicate real-life conditions, and testing in active processes is sometimes inefficient and even impossible. To test measuring instruments under specific conditions and configurations, WIKA USA built its own full-size process unit …
Advancements in thermocouple assemblies allow syngas plants to easily update their temperature measurement solutions for low temperature shift (LTS) applications. With improved monitoring of catalyst activity, syngas plants can maximize catalyst life and better plan …
Thermocouples are popular temperature measurement devices due to their versatility, responsiveness, ruggedness, and low cost. To make the most of them, here are five things you should know about industrial thermocouple assemblies. Thermocouples are the workhorses …
To produce hydrogen for industrial use, syngas (synthesis gas) plants all over the world use steam methane reformers (SMR). Temperature measurement and monitoring is key to performance and safety, especially during the potentially dangerous startup process. A steam …
Hot spots can considerably reduce the life of furnace tubes. To monitor hot spots, tubeskins should be equipped with a reliable, robust temperature measurement system. Multipoint thermocouple assemblies can quickly alert operators when hot spots occur. In addition, …
