REACTOR TEMPERATURE PROFILING REACTOR TEMPERATURE PROFILING PRODUCT CATALOGstan INTRODUCTION In the refining, chemical and petrochemical industries there are increasing needs for accurate and complete temperature data for proper operation of reactors. These industries continue to see increasing regulatory requirements, emerging competition and the need to operate older units or reactors. Profitable operation often demands maximizing yields and increasing catalyst run time. Having the flexibility to take advantage of new process operating schemes and catalysts becomes imperative. Since there are significant differences in: + Operating conditions * Reactor designs * Process parameters * Mechanical conditions and stresses * Catalyst reactivity itis critical that the proper design of temperature measuring system be specified and implemented. By property selecting, or designing the temperature measuring system, itis possible to: + Optimize process safety + Extend catalyst life + Enhance operations + Decrease maintenance costs * Increase yields + Improve product quality The following sections of the "Reactor Temperature Profiling” catalog gives five general categories of technology: + Flex-R® (Radial Multipoint Reactor Thermometry) * Gayesco Single Sheath * Hybrid Solutions + Flex-O™ (Multipoint Pipewell Reactor Thermometry Systems) i-Multipoint Assemblies Gayesco specializes in unique solutions to difficult applications. If the categories listed above do not address the specific needs of your reactor / process, please contact the Gayesco representative cof your area, which can be located from our website at www.gayesco.com, or contact our corporate headquarters at U.S. (713) 941-8540 for more information,kgs TABLE OF CONTENTS FLEX-R® (Radial Multipoint Reactor Thermometry) ..
