Flow-thru thermocouples use the Nanmac Right-Angle Ribbon Thermocouple. The Right-Angle sensor features a thermal element of thin ribbons welded together at the sensing tip. In the food processing drug manufacturing industries, the temperature of the material flowing through the pipelines during various stages of the process is often necessary. The temperature sensor must measure this temperature without disturbing the flow. Also, the temperature sensor must not penetrate through the wall fo the pipeline as this could be difficult to clean and could trap small amounts of materials. This could contaminate subseqent process runs.
Nanmac's line of Flow-Thru thermocouples have been modified to meet these stringent requirements. These modifications consist of machining a flat surface on the modified to measure these temperatures. These modifications consist of machining a flat surface on the exterior of the pipes such that a thin diaphragm of 0.015" thickness remains in the wall of the pipe. A Nanmac Right-Angle Ribbon Thermocouple with ribbon elements is then installed such that the thermal junction makes intimate thermal contact. With the backside of the thin diaphragm without creating any errors caused by conduction along the stem of the sensor. All assemblies come with a set of Buna N Gasket for use on both ports. Spare gaskets and gaskets made from other materials are available.
