A major producer of supported catalysts in the U.S. was dissatisfied with the short lifespan of the temperature sensors in their rotary calciners. WIKA USA came up with a creative solution that protects thermocouples from mechanical damage while still providing …
Insulating gases – not just pure SF 6 but also SF 6 blends, N2, g3, and others – protect switchgear from failure. WIKA is a leader in remote sensing solutions that help power transmission and distribution companies monitor the quality and quantity of these gases. …
Bimetal thermometers are tried-and-true instruments for measuring temperature in a wide range of industrial applications, combining low cost and low maintenance with easy installation, use, and calibration. Sometimes a measurement technology is so simple yet …
Thermal runaway reactions are one of the leading causes of accidents in chemical and petrochemical plants. To prevent such catastrophes, operators should continually monitor temperatures using sensors with the fastest possible response time for that application. …
WIKA conducted a series of tests – both in the field and using computational fluid dynamics – to evaluate the accuracy of tubeskin thermocouples (TSTCs) when installed on a butter-pad vs. on a bare tube. We also varied the weld material’s orientation …
