Description
Applications
- Chemical and petrochemical industry
- Measurement of temperature layerings or hotspots in reactors
- Fuel depots
Multipoint thermometers are often used for measuring temperature profiles in reactors, fuel depots, or for the detection of “hotspots”.
The individual measuring points are pressed by pressure springs to the internal side of the pipewell to achieve rapid response times. This forms a single entity with the thermometer which can ideally be an already existing component of the reactor. Connection terminals or temperature transmitters are placed in the connection housing. This is either a component of the multipoint thermometer or can be mounted separately. For example, on a wall or pipeline.
The purge is a unique product feature for increased safety. This is performed by purging contaminants and providing internal pipewell pressure relief. The purge design incorporates a single heavy-wall center support tube which provides a purging gas the entire length of the pipewell. The purging protects the internal of the pipewell and thermocouple sensors.
All designs are customer engineered for each specific customer application and need.
