Multipoint assemblies enable 3D temperature profiling of process reactors
09 April 2010
A range of multipoint temperature assemblies are now available from Okazaki Manufacturing Company (OMC), which are suitable for all types of process applications, including crude oil storage tanks, hydrocarbon cracking units, chemical reactors and desulphurisation catalyst bed reactors.
For chemical reactors and desulphurisation catalyst bed reactors, OMC’s AerOradial range of multipoint temperature assemblies is ideal. OMC utilises its own AerOpak mineral insulated cables, providing single tip measurement or multiple sensing points within a single stem. This enables full, three-dimensional temperature profiling, which ensures safe control of the process with a fast thermal response.
Assemblies can be positioned through the side, top or bottom of the reactor vessel, with adjustable spacers for catalyst tubes or with an optional mounting system for fitting to the reactor.
To ensure the pressure seal is maintained on the assembly, the sensors are welded into custom-designed pressure containment chambers. These chambers can be fitted with pressure gauges or transmitters, which indicate any safety problems such as a primary seal failure.
