Gayesco's Flex-R®
Reactor "RADIAL" Temperature Measurement
System
|
The refining and
petrochemical industries continue to see increased regulatory
requirements, increased competition and the need to operate older units
or reactors. Profitable operations demand maximizing yields and
increasing catalyst run times. Having the flexibility to take
advantage of new process operating schemes and new catalysts becomes
imperative. Conventional temperature measurement designs limit or
mislead operators due to design or location. In response to these
industry needs GAYESCO has developed a "RADIAL" temperature
measurement system called the FLEX-R®. This technology feature
advancement in several major areas of process temperature measurement
and is a commercially proven success since 1987. |
