The temperature in my incinerator is around 1200 degrees, measured with a thermocouple
Thread Content
The temperature in my furnace is around 1200 degrees; I use thermocouples to measure the temperature, but after some time they break. I’m using S-type thermocouples. What is a more suitable way to solve it?
Wuxi Hanle Technology specializes in the production of various types of thermocouples, which come equipped with protective tubes made of wear-resistant alloy materials
1200℃??? That’s really high and amazing. . . At this temperature, it’s likely that even bones can be burned to ashes; there won’t be any ashes left to scatter~~~ The thermocouple broke after being exposed to the heat for some time – is that reasonable? I think it’s quite reasonable; if it keeps burning without stopping, then that’s really inhumane behavior, {:3_51:}. . .
If a Type B thermocouple is used, the sleeve must also be heat-resistant
Type B, double platinum-rhodium thermocouple: category code, calibration number, maximum temperature, temperature range of measurement, allowable deviation △t℃: platinum-rhodium30-platinum-rhodium6, WRR B, 0~1800, 0-1600, ±1.0℃ or ±0.25%t
Doesn’t this thermocouple have a protective sleeve?
Replace it with a Type B thermocouple and use a high-temperature resistant sleeve
It is necessary to choose one that can withstand high temperatures as well as wear; the airflow outside the sleeve is likely to be significant
Use a Type B thermocouple with a corundum protective sleeve.
How to install it, side-mounted or top-mounted, and what is the insertion depth? When the insertion depth of the measuring element exceeds 1 m, it should be installed as vertically as possible, or a support frame should be added
How did it break? You didn’t explain clearly
