WIKA multipoint thermometers: worldwide leaders in temperature measurement

Multipoint thermometers are used in various applications in the refining and petrochemical industry. WIKA is a world leader in flexible multipoint sensor thermometry and the preferred solution of many major companies and licensors. Our advanced multipoint solutions, including FLEX-R® and FLEX-O®, are recognised as leading technologies in the industry. Additional multipoint products for global market requirements include traditional multipoint designs such as pipewells, T-bar, spring-loaded, bimetallic spring, and heat transfer block. Innovative mini-multipoint solutions where point density and thermocouple size matter include both stuffed and drawn assemblies to solve challenging applications.

FAQ
FAQ

Is welding to the reactor needed in order to retrofit a FLEX-R®?

No, the FLEX-R® was developed to easily retrofit to existing reactors. The technology can be retrofitted, using proper supports, with attachment to non-pressure retaining elements of the reactor internals.

Can the FLEX-R® be installed in the reactor in the horizontal position?

Yes, the FLEX-R® can be installed in any position. However, care should be taken to ensure the internal structures are tightly secured in their proper position.

Does the FLEX-R® (model TC96-R) include a secondary seal?

Yes, FLEX-R® assemblies can have a primary seal weld and a secondary seal weld from the thermocouple to the flange assembly at the face of the flange, not on a single disk, and again after the secondary containment chamber.
