VI. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q: What are the advantages of the Inconel 600 sheath compared to ordinary stainless steel sheaths?
A: Inconel 600 alloy has far better high-temperature resistance (long-term 1600℃), oxidation resistance, and corrosion resistance than ordinary stainless steel. Its service life is extended by more than 3 times in complex atmospheres, adapting to more severe working conditions.
Q: How to choose between different thermocouple types (Type C/D/E/K)?
A: Type C/D (tungsten-rhenium material) is suitable for high-temperature scenarios of 1000~1600℃; Type E/K is suitable for medium-to-low temperature scenarios of 0~1000℃. Selection can be based on temperature measurement range and precision requirements.
Q: What is the service life of the product under corrosive working conditions?
A: The Inconel 600 sheath has excellent corrosion resistance. Under chemical working conditions with moderate acid-base concentration, the service life is ≥600 hours. The specific service life needs to be evaluated based on medium concentration and temperature.
Q: Does the product support signal remote transmission?
A: Yes! It can be equipped with an explosion-proof junction box and signal converter to realize 4~20mA signal remote transmission, directly connecting to PLC, DCS, and other control systems without additional adaptation equipment.
Q: What should be noted during installation?
A: The insertion depth should not be less than 12 times the sheath diameter to avoid measurement errors; the junction box should be kept away from high-temperature areas (distance ≥30cm) to prevent terminal overheating and aging; avoid collision between the sheath and sharp objects to prevent damage.
Q: Does the product need regular calibration?
A: It is recommended to calibrate once every 6 months or after 500 hours of use. The calibration standard refers to IEC 60584, which can be completed by contacting the manufacturer or a third-party authoritative institution to ensure measurement accuracy.
VII. Usage and Maintenance Instructions
Confirm the working condition atmosphere and temperature before installation, select the corresponding thermocouple type, and avoid over-temperature or incompatible atmosphere use.
During installation, ensure the sheath is fully inserted into the measured area and fixed firmly to prevent displacement or damage caused by vibration.
Strictly distinguish positive and negative poles during wiring, ensure firm wire connection, and seal the junction box to prevent dust and moisture from entering and affecting internal components.
Regularly (every 3 months) inspect the sheath appearance and wiring terminals. Timely handle or replace if oxidation, cracks, looseness, or other issues occur.
When not in use for a long time, store the product in a dry and well-ventilated environment (humidity ≤60%RH), and cover both ends of the sheath with protective caps to avoid moisture and oxidation.
