There are various types of thermocouples used in industry to measure temperatures between –200°C to 2300°C. It is important to select the right thermocouple for accurate and efficient temperature measurement. Our Platinum Rhodium sheath thermocouples, available in Type S, R, and B, can withstand continuous temperature monitoring up to 1700°C. Platinum–Rhodium alloy–sheath thermocouples offer superior...
In Waste-to-Energy (WtE) incineration plants, temperature control is very important. It affects combustion efficiency, emissions, and equipment life. Therefore, precise temperature monitoring is essential. Technical Impact of Temperature Monitoring: Complete Combustion: Thermocouples (Type K, S, or R) monitor high temperatures (850–1100 °C) continuously. This ensures the waste fully oxidizes. As a result, harmful gases like CO,...
Bearing Temperature: A Silent Indicator of Motor Health Motor bearings may be small, but they play a vital role in the reliability and efficiency of electric motors. Indeed, one of the clearest signs of bearing condition is temperature. When bearing temperature rises abnormally, it often signals issues such as misalignment, overloading, lubrication failure, or even...
