Pipeline Temperature Measurement

Pipeline temperature measurement may use a pipe-surface assembly or an inserted point. The measurement question, pipe arrangement and mounting method should be defined before selecting a sensor.

Plan pipeline measurement around the point list: identify each line and location, the required process value, operating conditions and the instrument input. Note flow context, insulation, access and whether a reading is needed during normal operation or maintenance. A pipe-wall reading and a reading from within the process are different measurement points.

For an external contact point, record pipe size, accessible contact area, surface condition, mounting clearance and lead route. The catalogue documents WP-73 with a curved plate and WP-77 with a Jubilee clip as pipe-surface contact formats. See the surface temperature sensor family and the individual WP-73 and WP-77 listings; neither listing documents inserted mounting.

For a proposed inserted point, provide the process connection, required insertion dimensions, medium and operating conditions for review. The WP-27 threaded fixed-plug thermocouple listing documents liquid and immersion, pipeline, and pipe, tank and vessel measurement; confirm the exact connection and dimensions for the intended service. The product information does not establish suitability for every pipeline duty.

Send the point list or pipe sketch, measurement objective, mounting details, conditions and signal requirement with the enquiry. For a comparison of surface and inserted measurement methods, see the surface vs inserted sensor guide.
