The procedure conditions often lead to shutdowns and interruptions functioning. Profitability and safety aspects are thus two important themes in connection with the instruments used in them.<br\/>WIKA sapphire-design thermocouple TC84<br\/>Method of resolution: Sapphire thermocouple<br\/>Through the use of a sapphire protection tube, the high-temperature thermocouple is protected from poisoning by the aggressive process atmosphere during operation. The reason for this is its monocrystalline structure.  <a href=\"http:\/\/freedailylife.com\">Guts<\/a> -design thermocouple has, because of its construction, a significantly higher service life than other high-pressure thermocouples and, therefore, plays a part in a clear decrease in the process downtime.<br\/>Advantages of a sapphire thermocouple<br\/>3 times longer service life in comparison to purely ceramic thermowells due to the monocrystalline structure of the sapphire thermowell<br\/>High process safety with processes up to 1,700 \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdC and 65 bar<br\/>Cost saving due to the elimination of complex purge systems and valves and fittings for flow measurement<br\/>Reduced amount of unplanned downtime<br\/>Increased safety against escape of toxic media through double sealing system<br\/>Construction of the TC84 sapphire-design thermocouple<br\/>Special construction of a sapphire thermocouple<br\/>The special construction of a sapphire thermocouple provides increased safety.<br\/>The primary sealing serves as protection contrary to the escape of toxic process gases at high pressures and in addition at high temperatures<br\/>The secondary sealing is the safeguard in the event of a malfunction in the primary seal because of any unforeseeable disturbance to the principal seal<br\/>The ceramic outer thermowell serves as protection against harsh process conditions<br\/>The sapphire protection tube protects internally against contamination of the thermocouples through diffusion<br\/>Note<br\/>WIKA is rolling out the TC84 sapphire-design, high-temperature thermocouple specifically for use in gasification reactors.
