Abstract—A difficult-to-predict electrical failure is the continuity failure. Pressure junctions are common problem sources for continuity failures. Available tools to search for pressure-junction problems include low-resistance testing, temperature monitoring using physical contact between sensor and heated part, pyrometer temperature monitoring, infrared photography, and visual ...
Roughly 100 miles south of Deadhorse, Alaska, replacement of Oksrukuyik Creek Bridge warranted application of an ad-freeze pile design for two bridge abutments supporting the bridge deck. In light of permafrost soils and thermal influences from the creek’s thaw bulb, long term temperature profiling along the abutments was implemented to verify efficacy of the foundation design. Problem ...
Richard Gagg, Industry Manager - Metals, AMETEK Land discusses advances in non-contact temperature measurement for aluminium extruders. While aluminium extrusions are common, the process of extruding high-quality profiles is far from easy. Understanding temperature and controlling press speed and quench rates during the extrusion process are critical to producing products that have the ...
One of the tools to measure the surface temperature of an object without contact is the radiation thermometer that measures the dose of infrared rays emitted from the surface of the object. HORIBA's radiation thermometer, available in various types to meet a wide range of applications, were demanded to improve their response time in applications to measurement of moving objects or observation of ...
A green functional adsorbent (CAD) was prepared by Schiff base reaction of chitosan and amino-modified diatomite. The morphology, structure and adsorption properties of the CAD were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, scanning electron microscopy and Brunauer Emmett Teller measurements. The effect of pH value, contact time and temperature on ...
INTRODUCTION P5G Foundries required an effective solution for accurately measuring the temperature of liquid metals at its foundry. The business purchased over 10,000 DIP thermocouple consumables each year and was looking for a solution that was both safer and more cost effective. Its aim was to optimise the quality of the molten metal, whilst achieving significant annual savings on consumables. ...
Non contact temperature measurement sensors solution The traditional body temperature measurement is a contact measurement using a mercury thermometer, which has the advantages of stable performance and small error, but has the disadvantages of long measurement time, high risk of cross-contamination, and easy to cause mercury poisoning due to glass breakage. Infrared ear thermometer is the most ...
Accurate temperature measurement is critical in aluminum rolling and extrusion processing. This article will address the importance of accurately measuring the temperature at various stages in the manufacturing of these wrought aluminum products, particularly rolled aluminum, presenting both challenges and solutions. Sensor Types There are two main sensor types: contact temperature measurement ...
View our webinar where we will introduce advances in non-contact temperature measurement for aluminum extruders, including its SPOT AL EQS pyrometer and actuator. Attendees will learn how understanding temperature and controlling press speed and quench rates during the aluminum extrusion process are critical to producing products that have the required quality and properties. Overview While ...
How non-contact temperature measurement is effective in optimizing production in the galvanising process The purpose of the continuous galvanising line (CGL) is to apply a coating of zinc onto the surface of steel strip in order to increase its corrosion resistance. This is done by passing the strip through a molten zinc pot under tightly controlled temperature conditions. The strip is heated ...
Non contact type thermometer solution The traditional body temperature measurement is a contact measurement using a mercury thermometer, which has the advantages of stable performance and small error, but has the disadvantages of long measurement time, high risk of cross-contamination, and easy to cause mercury poisoning due to glass breakage. Infrared ear thermometer is the most commonly used ...
AMETEK Land has published a new global services brochure as part of the company’s continued commitment to assist customers in achieving the best operating performance from AMETEK Land instruments and systems. The brochure details AMETEK Land’s comprehensive range of after-sales services, incorporating technical support, certification and calibration, commissioning, repairs, ...
Accurately measuring the temperature of a viscous liquid can present its own set of unique challenges, but what if the liquid is flowing? Thermowells A thermowell is a device that allows you to measure the temperature of moving fluid without having to shut down the entire process to insert or remove the temperature probe. Basically, it is a metal tube closed at one end, mounted in the process ...

AMETEK Land, one of the world’s leading glass industry temperature measurement specialists, will showcase its award-winning, real-time, in-furnace thermal imaging Near Infrared Borescope (NIR-B) at a number of leading international glass industry events this autumn. These include Glassman Europe, Gulf Glass, Vitrum and the International Commission on Glass (ICG) Annual Meeting. At Glassman ...
With the help of picture-in-picture technology, lots of modern infrared thermometers can easily monitor heat distribution. With the launch of the new infrared thermometer PCE-TC 24, PCE Instruments is introducing an interesting maintenance tool onto the market that measures temperatures within a range of -20 to 380 °C. The temperatures are displayed as real images with a resolution of 240 x ...
5APA Profiles UK has implemented AMETEK Land's new SPOT AL EOS (SPOT Aluminium Extrusion, Quench and Strip) pyrometers at its aluminium extrusion plant in Tibshelf, Derbyshire, and reaps major efficiencies and performance benefits by accurately measuring temperature of low and variable emissivity aluminium. This innovative new SPOT AL EQ5 pyrometer from AMETEK Land, the leading industrial ...
“I would like to order a million infrared temperature sensors” is the kind of request that a temperature measurement company likes to hear. In the response to COVID-19, many people are looking for solutions to monitoring people’s temperature and we have fielded several of these inquiries. TEGAM specializes in contact temperature measurement as opposed to infrared temperature ...
Both infrared line scanners and thermal imagers are increasingly used in industrial thermal imaging applications, however for certain applications the infrared line scanners are preferable. Firstly, we will consider more about infrared linescanners and thermal imagers. Infrared Linescanners The standard operating mode of an infrared linescanner uses the periodic deflection of the optical ...
