In the past, temperature measurement between 800 and 1700°C placed particularly high demands on the measuring technology. Therefore, at many critical measuring points, measurements were either not taken continuously, or the thermocouples had to be replaced fairly frequently.
In recent years, materials research has provided many new materials, ranging from metal alloys to robust, ceramic substances. Endress+Hauser has examined and tested many of these and found it possible to produce thermowells capable of withstanding extreme process conditions far longer than previously thought possible.
The new thermowells provide both mechanical protection for the thermocouple and prevent the penetration of gases that cause temperature drifts and failure due to corrosion. A thermocouple designed with the optimum thermo-well material makes the process more reliable, accurate, manageable and stable over the long term. This drives down maintenance costs and improves quality, process safety, and safety at work.
Endress+Hauser has incorporated its research and testing into the Omnlgrad S TAF high-temperature sensor line. Given the extensive possibilities of combining the TAF11, TAF12S, TAF12D, TAF12T and TAF16 devices, the ideal thermocouple can be designed for every application, allowing thermocouples to be used in an even wider range of applications.
