High-pressure processes, which often come with high temperatures and strong vibrations as well, place significant stress on measuring instrumentation. That’s why testing is such an important aspect of the manufacturing process. WIKA designs and manufactures …
High-pressure applications put a lot of stress on measuring instrumentation. Making matters worse are high temperatures and heavy vibrations. Choosing the right thermocouple is essential for ensuring safe and reliable operations. Numerous applications call …
Refinery operators who work with fixed bed catalysts place a high value on temperature accuracy, but they also don’t want to waste time by taking unnecessary temperature readings. Thus, to better understand any radial temperature differences that may exist during …
With repeated exposure to high temperatures, a Type K thermocouple becomes less accurate. Aging is a phenomenon that results in higher-than-accurate temperature readings, while drift results in lower-than-accurate readings. While all Type K thermocouples experience …
When 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 …
