Designed for use by the steel, metals, industrial furnace and ceramic industries, versatile PSC-55N series pyrometers are ideal for precise temperature measurements from 392-5432°F (200-3000°C) and operate in the shortwave spectral range with fast, adjustable response time of 5 milliseconds to reduce or compensate for changes in target or surface emissivity.

When something so disruptive happens that hits daily life in unpredictable ways, adaptability becomes a key element, especially when it comes to business. We have seen many people adopting smart working, as face-to-face meetings and business trips have been replaced by frequent video calls.

The PBI facility, as part of their planned maintenance period, worked on one of the two reactors late last year. During the cleaning process, high-pressure water damaged one of the bushings on one of the reactors. Two of these specially made GRAPHALLOY® bushings are used in each reactor, which makes the polymer used to produce the fibers at the plant.

How much do you think you know about high-temperature corrosion, and what does “high temperature” really mean?

Unfortunately, the answer to this question is quite complex and is dependent on a host of variables, not all of which may be obvious.

This article discusses different types of direct-fired gas burners that can be used for high-temperature applications.

Ceramabond 670 is a single part, water-dispersible, aluminum-oxide-based adhesive and coating system that offers exceptional mechanical and electrical properties up to 3000°F (1650°C). It is ideal for use with ceramics as well as non-ceramic substrates such as steel and stainless steel.

Pyro-Putty 653 is an inorganic, single-part, ceramic and metal-filled paste that bonds tenaciously to cast iron, steel and stainless steel.
