Accurate temperature monitoring and control begins with a properly designed sensor. RTD – Resistance Temperature Detector used for temperature measurement (-) 200°C to 500°C (up to 800°C on request), must have the physical configuration necessary for optimum thermal response to the process fluid it is sensing and the resistive element compatible with instrumentation.

In continuation with its endeavour to provide products of best quality to clients, General has developed RTD with Nickel conductor in Mineral Insulated Construction for the first time in India.The basic difference between the conventional & Nickel conductor is material of conductor. In conventional, it is copper as against Nickel in newly developed MI.

IRTD temperature transmitters convert the RTD resistance measurement to a current signal, eliminating the problems inherent in RTD signal transmission via lead resistance. Errors in RTD circuits (especially two and three wire RTDs) are often caused by the added resistance of the lead wire between the sensor and the instrument. Transmitter input, specifications, user inter faces, features, sensor connections, and environment are all important parameters to consider when searching for RTD temperature transmitters.

General Mineral Insulated Thermocouple Assemblies consist of two, four or six thermocouple wires embedded in compact MgO - mineral insulation, enclosed in a metallic tube The assembly is compact, flexible enough to route, has a high insulation resistance and high thermal conductivity. Mineral insulated thermocouple assemblies are robust in construction and offer good mechanical strength.

The conventional thermocouple is used with an outer protecting tube or thermowell to protect it from aggressive and corrosive process condition. This improves the longevity of the thermocouple. However, response time is poor. To overcome above problem, General has designed MI Thickwall Thermocouple having a thicker wall with relatively larger conductor diameters. This construction enables the user to insert the thermocouple directly into the process without a protecting tube or thermowell, improving response time considerably.

General indigenized the skin Thermocouple assemblies first time in India. Tube Skin Thermocouples manufactured by us are reliable for measurement and control of tube surface temperature in fire heaters. Accurate temperature measurement is important for prolonging heater tube life, for ensuring safe and efficient operation. We have been supplying tube skin thermocouple assemblies in quantities to majority of the projects in India as well as exporting to various countries.

Aerofoil is Primary Flow element use to measure air flow in rectangular duct. An Aerofoil is having the shape of the cross section of the aircarft wing, with the function of producing a controllable net aerodynamic force.

General Flow Nozzle is used in typically high-velocity,non-viscous,erosive flow.They are suitable for determining the flow rates of fluids at high temperature and high pressure.General Flow Nozzles are erosion-resistant,consisently accurate and virtually maintenance-free.They Perform a wide variety of applications that include air ,water,steam,gas,chemical substances and high temperature applications.

These types of nozzles are designed for installation in a pipe without flanges.The flow nozzle is installed with the help of holding ring and locating pins which are made of same material as that of pipe thereby eliminating welding of dissimilar materials and alsoeliminating more welding joints in a shorter pipe lengths because of high pressure arears.

These types of Nozzles are used for insertion between pipe flanges, where frequent maintenance is required in the line.These types of the nozzle are very rarely used.
