HotRod sheaths from Morgan Molten Metal Systems offer superior thermocouple protection
Durable assemblies allow fast, accurate temperature readings in molten metal applications
Morgan's Molten Metal Systems business announces its HotRod™ pyrometry sheaths and other pyrometer assembly products, which protect thermocouples in furnace heating control systems. Industry proven for over 30 years, the pyrometer assemblies are made of a durable, erosion-resistant clay-graphite mix with special plasticity properties, which is then extruded into the proper shape.
The pyrometer assemblies are durable, with a glaze on the ceramic exterior that protects the product from oxidation, thereby reducing downtime. These assemblies offer effective thermocouple protection with high thermal conductivity for fast, accurate temperature readings and reduced fuel consumption. Single pyrotubes are heat resistant to 1600C, while the HotRod sheaths with inner steel tubes are resistant to 1000C and are typically used for aluminum applications. HotRod products require no special tools for installation.
