Measuring pipeline temperature without thermowells or process penetrations
In this episode, Greg Pryor, Product Marketing Manager – Temperature & Systems at Endress+Hauser Group, discusses how the TM611 non-invasive temperature measurement solution eliminates the need for thermowells and process penetrations while delivering accuracy and response times comparable to invasive methods. Pryor explains the challenges that decades of invasive measurement have created for pipeline operators and the advantages of a retrofit solution for aging, highly regulated infrastructure that can be installed without shutting down operations. The conversation also covers the safety and leak-prevention benefits of keeping instrumentation outside the pipe and performance in demanding conditions such as high pressure, corrosive media, abrasion and pigging operations.
