Our products, including the innovative Gayesco Flex-R<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> multipoint thermocouple assemblies and the Gayesco Refracto-Pad<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>, WIKA V-Pad<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>, and Gayesco Xtracto-Pad<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> tubeskin thermocouple assemblies, are found in refineries all over the world.<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As safety, environmental, and performance demands increase, refineries have an ever greater need for temperature measurement systems that are accurate and reliable. Plant engineers must closely monitor the temperature of catalyst beds, distillation columns, tubeskins, and rundown lines \u2013 both to ensure that the feedstock is being processed efficiently and that reactors do not operate within an unsafe temperature zone.<\/p>\n<h2>Temperature Measurement Products in Refinery Applications<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wika.com\/en-us\/wika_usa.WIKA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer external\">Gayesco International<\/a>, which WIKA acquired in 2012, has been designing innovative devices for refineries since 1958. Taking into account the particular needs of the oil and gas sector, our experts have developed a range of products that meet the challenging demands of refining processes. Today, these temperature measurement solutions can be found at the core of most refinery applications around the world.<\/p>\n<p>The most popular products for refinery applications include: <span>\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Multipoint Temperature Measurement Systems. <\/strong>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wika.com\/en-us\/tc96_r.WIKA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer external\">Gayesco\u00a0Flex-R<span><sup>\u00ae<\/sup>\u00a0<\/span>multipoint thermocouple assembly<\/a> is an effective, flexible tool for refiners to get radial temperature information. More than 125,000 of these dependable and long-lasting temperature measurement sensors can be found in almost 2,400 reactors around the world. They are so robust that refiners include them in safety systems, such as automatic reactor depressurization units. They are also extremely reliable. In fact, <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.wika.com\/us\/\/blog\/2018\/02\/23\/customers-return-gayesco-wikas-temperature-measurement-solutions\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">some earlier models lasted almost three decades before they were updated<\/a>. (For optimal performance, WIKA recommends verifying the health of the system during catalyst change-outs and replacing it with a new thermocouple assembly every 15\u201325 years.)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Gayesco Flex-R<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> systems are routinely used in fixed bed catalyst reactors, catalyst regenerators, and column and contactor applications in:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Hydrocrackers<\/li>\n<li>Hydrotreaters<\/li>\n<li>Continuous catalytic reformers<\/li>\n<li>Fluid catalytic crackers<\/li>\n<li>Isomerization units<\/li>\n<li>Crude and vacuum distillation units<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Besides the Gayesco Flex-R<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>, WIKA also makes Gayesco T-Bar multipoints, Gayesco Flex-O<span>\u2122\u00a0<\/span>pipewell multipoints, and mini multipoints.
