From Extreme Heat to Arctic Cold: WIKA’s Replaceable Thermocouple and RTD Temperature Sensor
| Adam DeLanceyWhen reactors or pipelines are located in extremely hot or cold conditions, they must be insulated in order to keep the process media within an optimal temperature range. This insulation, however, makes it time-consuming and expensive for operators to replace a …
For High-Vibration Applications, Use Rugged Pt100 Sensors
| Ravi JethraTurbines, pumps, and compressors produce significant vibrations, which can lead temperature measurement instruments to give incorrect readings and cause premature sensor failure. Pt100 RTDs can withstand several times more vibration than standard elements, making them …
Prevent Hydrocracking Runaways with the Flex-R Multipoint Thermocouple
| Robert TorgersonThermal 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 WIKA USA's Flex-R ® multipoint …
WIKA’s Cut-to-Length RTD Sensor Minimizes Downtime, Saves Money
| Adam DeLanceyRTD sensors are robust temperature measurement devices used in many applications across multiple industries. However, like any other industrial instrumentation, they will fail – regardless of their robustness or the environment – after years of service. WIKA …
