The thermoprobe is a measurement and analysis instrument to monitor the flue gas temperature in critical zones of the furnace exit area.
Operating Principle
- The probe tube with its thermocouple is driven into the flue gas pass to monitor the flue gas temperature
- Cooling medium is supplied to avoid overheating of the probe tube head
- On reaching the front-side end position, the direction of movement changes and the probe tube returns to its rest position
Features
- High Temperature-resistant probe thermocouple and probe tube material
- Travel monitoring with limit switches
- Distance measurement advice sensor to determine the position of the probe tube
- Integrated gear motor for advance movement
Your Benefits
- Reliable detection of the process parameter Furnace Exit Gas Temperature (FEGT)
- Measurement of temperature profile during boiler start
- With the temperature measurement at the furnace exit, temperature peaks can be detected and an overheating of the downstream heat exchanger surfaces during boiler start could be avoided
- Monitoring of the flue gas temperature through simultaneous accurate positioning of the thermocouple (path-dependent temperature measurement)
