The high-purity alumina ceramic thermocouple protection tubes have outstanding heat resistance and chemical resistance, making them suitable for industries like metallurgy, chemical industry, petrochemicals, etc.
Benefits of Alumina Ceramic Thermocouple Protection Tube
High-Temperature Resistance
It can retain high strength in high temperature environments and is not easily cracked or broken. The service temperature ranges from 1,500 to 1,700 °C.
High Corrosion Resistance
It is advantageous to measure the temperature of corrosive chemicals like acids and alkalis since it is not corroded in various acid-base molten liquids.
High Thermal Conductivity
It swiftly transmits the temperature of the molten liquid to the thermocouple, resulting in a faster response time and more accurate temperature readings.
High Mechanical Strength
When working, it can withstand pressure and vibration. This is crucial in applications involving high pressure or vibration, such as the oil and gas industry.
Common Specification
Alumina ceramic thermocouple protection tubes typically range from 4 to 30 mm in outer diameter, with wall thicknesses that are proportionate to the product size between 0.75 and 4 mm. The common specifications are as follows:
The length of the above specs can be customized, and the inventory is large, allowing for fast delivery within 7 days.
Product Packaging
UNIPRETEC uses shock-absorbing materials like foam or bubble pads inside the packaging, and cartons, wooden boxes, hangers, and other shock-absorbing materials on the outside to ensure the safety and integrity of the products during transport.
Description of Shapes
Tubular Structure: Typically, alumina ceramic thermocouple protection tubes are straight tubes with an inner diameter that corresponds to the thermocouple diameter.
constant Wall Thickness: Consistent wall thickness of the protective tube contributes to constant heat conductivity and protection efficacy.
Smooth Inner and Outer Walls: The tube is made simpler to clean and maintain by having smooth inner and outer walls that lessen friction and material adhesion.
Installation and connection of the protective tube may be made easier by the design of threads, flanges, or fast connections at both ends.
Variable Length: To suit various measuring depths and situations, the protective tube may be supplied in various lengths according to the application needs.
Wear-Resistant Edges: The tube mouth's edge is specifically coated to minimize wear and damage.
High Temperature Resistant Design: The protective tube is designed not to easily bend or split and to endure prolonged high temperature conditions.
Aspects of Design
High Temperature Resistance: Alumina ceramic protective tubes must to be able to tolerate temperatures as high as 1700°C.
Chemical Stability: In order to stop corrosion, the protective tube material must be compatible with any chemicals that could be present in the measuring environment.
Thermal Conductivity: To guarantee the thermocouple can react precisely and fast to temperature changes, the protective tube's thermal conductivity should be maximized.
Mechanical strength: The protective tube has to be strong enough mechanically to bear the physical strain during usage, cleaning, and installation.
Thermal expansion coefficient: To prevent mechanical strain brought on by temperature variations, the protective tube's thermal expansion coefficient should match that of the thermocouple material.
Thermal shock resistance: The protective tube need to be able to bear sharp temperature swings without shattering or cracking.
Simple installation: To save maintenance time and effort, the protective tube need to be made to be simple to install and remove.
