DESCRIPTION

 |
RTD's |
RTD Temperature Sensors capitalize on the fact that the electrical resistance of a material changes as its temperature changes. The most common type of RTD (an Applied Sensor Technologies standard) is platinum, with characteristics that have been standardized under the European IEC 751 standard. Many different options can be applied.

 |
Thermocouple |
From the bearings to the boiler, temperature sensors, thermocouples
and RTD's manufactured by Applied Sensor
Technologies are designed for reliability and
durability, and are proven in the field. We have
designed sensors for your gas turbine exhaust
and your heat tracing system, for the gas flow
computers you rely upon and the cooling water
outflow.

 |
Thermowells & Protection Tubes |
We provide a wide range of thermowell designs,
in many different materials, for applications
from the natural gas supply lines to the HRSG.
From threaded wells for the water treatment
equipment, to flanged wells, socket-weld and
weld-in styles in a variety of carbon steels,
stainless steels and high-nickel alloys.

 |
Transmitters |
In many applications, it is not feasible to wire
a temperature sensor directly into the control
system, due to distance or signal quality. One
of our temperature transmitters is an ideal
choice to convert the sensor's output signal to a
reliable 4-20 mA or HART® protocol.

 |
Gas Measurement Sensor |
For most gas pipeline companies, flow computers
are used to measure the volume of the gas flowing
through the line. This allows them to properly charge
their customers for product delivered. One of the
required inputs needed for the flow computer to
calculate volume is the temperature of the material.
100-Ω RTDs are typically used for this measurement,
due to their precision, output and easy availability.
Since inaccuracy or failure can mean lost revenue, it is
very important to have reliable measurement.

Sensor Box |
The SENSOR BOX is a modular temperature sensor assembly
system for the instrumentation maintenance professional.
It can be your solution to expediting, high inventory and expensive downtime. One of the challenges in maintaining industrial temperature sensors is the variety. It is difficult for the typical process plant to stock every sensor configuration they might need to replace - until now. By combining common parts into a modular system, a relatively small amount of stock can translate into the variety you need - quickly, and without expediting.
