Petrochemical plants use steam crackers to convert ethane into more useful ethylene. This energy-intensive process calls for maintaining very high temperature measurement within a relatively narrow range. The conversion of ethylene is poor if the temperature is …
A thermocouple has no moving parts and is extremely robust. However, thermocouples do lose accuracy over time and can become damaged by overheating during use or by human error. With a TC96-R thermocouple assembly, you enjoy the flexibility of thermocouple replacement …
Avoiding problems like corrosion or premature failure makes the use of pressure sensors safe and maximizes the lifespan of the product. One of the keys to doing that is to ensure that a pressure sensor's wetted parts – those which come in direct contact with …
Why Is Wellhead Monitoring Important? Modern oil and natural gas wells are typically designed to operate unattended for extended periods. Downtime means lost profits, so oil companies are willing to pay a premium for rugged, reliable equipment for their wellheads. …
Choosing the Right Oil Well Pressure Sensors for Extreme Environments When a well is pumping oil, everybody's happy because everybody's making a profit. But when breakdown halts the flow of oil, that same well suddenly turns from a profitable asset into an expensive …
