Thermocouples come in either grounded or ungrounded variants, which refer to whether the measuring point is welded to the sheath (grounded) or not (ungrounded). There are benefits, but also some tradeoffs, of using grounded vs. ungrounded thermocouples. …
Industrial Thermocouple - choosing the right one. The answer to the question “what kind of thermocouple?” depends on several factors relating to the process to be monitored, such as its compatibility with the media/process environment, frequency and accuracy of …
Temperature control is a critical factor for reactor vessels in the refining and chemicals industry. The catalysts that convert the process oil in these reactors work best in very specific temperature ranges, and too high or too low a temperature can have a noticeable …
Managing thermal expansion in liquid level measuring is a common issue in refinery and chemical applications that put level gauges outside the vessel or tank. In this configuration, the gauge is exposed to atmospheric conditions that may affect the temperature of the …
