Thermocouple exhaust sensors are a crucial component of contemporary engine control. Exhaust gas temperature measurement can be a crucial input for system algorithms that aim to increase efficiency, lessen pollution, and prolong engine life.
Because they must withstand extremely high temperatures, exhaust gas sensors are often thermocouples. 800°C or above can frequently be reached. The most typical thermocouple is Type K, while lesser performance engines may also use Type J.
An exhaust thermocouple must be strong enough to endure a high vibration environment in order to function properly. Then it needs to be small enough to react fast and avoid interrupting gas flows. The exhaust thermocouple requires both a gas gasket to stop leaks and a sheath to protect it from the corrosive combustion products.
TheGlobal Exhaust Gas Thermocouple market accounted for $XX Billion in 2021 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2022 to 2030.
The latest OEM production qualified AMETEK Hermetic Exhaust Gas (EGT) and Wheel Space Frame Turbine Thermocouples contain numerous advancements over earlier thermocouple products.
The new thermocouple from AMETEK is entirely hermetically sealed, ensuring longer product life, better temperature precision, and no annoying insulation resistance failures while in use. The issue of mineral insulated cable extending outside the turbine is solved by the junction box, which mounts directly to the radiation shield or turbine housing.
Materials were carefully chosen in order to provide longevity and to prevent galling and vibration failures. Together with the flexible cable from AMETEK, this innovative thermocouple creates a useful product.It is more dependable, accurate, and long-lasting in addition to being simpler to install and operate.
The exhaust gas thermocouples from the AMETEK Hybrid Series for Frame 7 and 9 applications have been designed, thoroughly tested, and certified to satisfy OEM requirements. In order to qualify and engine test this thermocouple as a straight replacement or for updating an older model exhaust gas thermocouple, AMETEK collaborated closely with the OEM turbine maker.
The connection head of these OEM-qualified hybrid exhaust gas thermocouples is extended away from the radiation shield. This improves the yield strength and lifespan of this probe and lowers the mass and energy level caused by the excessive vibration that is felt at low loading settings. The right insertion length into the airstream is ensured by the Hybrid Thermocouple without the need for a seat inside the radiation shield.
This thermocouple can be placed without difficulty and is no longer prone to tip fretting thanks to its fixed insertion length and thick oversheath. The benefits of the connectors, such as being able to reuse existing connection cables, can still be appreciated by extending the connectors away from the cutout and positioning them in a cooler place on top of the blanket.
For observing and logging various temperatures, including exhaust gas temperatures, cylinder head temperatures, pre- and post-intercooler temperatures, air temperatures, water temperatures, fluid temperatures, disc brake temperatures, and more, RTD and K-Type Thermocouple sensors are the ideal choice.
Both the affordable, quick-responding K-Type closed-tip thermocouple sensor and the robust closed-tip RTD-type high temperature sensor are available from AEM. The RTD-Type Temperature Sensor from AEM is brimming with attributes that ensure accurate measurement and durability.
The tip of this AEM EGT Sensor is smaller for less intrusion and less restriction, and it has a closed-tip design that lasts longer than the perforated tip design of the previous generation. The wire is shielded by inconel tubing and finished with a premium 2-pin DTM connection.
The sensor’s thin-film platinum element offers exceptional precision +/- 0.9% from 536 to 1,560 degrees F and a temperature reading range of -40 to 1,560 degrees F -40 to 850 degrees C. Our RTD-Type Sensor comes with a weld-in the sensor bung with machined M14x1.5 threads and a 90-degree bend at the sensor tip for simpler installation in confined spaces.
The K-Type Thermocouple Sensor from AEM is made up of a closed-tip TC sensor with an Inconel sheath, 10′ of extension wire, a compression fitting with an NPT thread of 1/8″, and a ring and termination harness.
The RaceGrade TC8 is a CAN-based device that reads and enables the connection of up to 8 thermocouple temperature sensors. The RG TC8 is typically used to detect exhaust gas temperature (EGT) and only functions with K-type thermocouples that are not amplified.
The TC8 version 1.4 can be programmed using CAN. If a user wants to connect numerous TC8s to a single CAN bus or if you’re utilizing a TC8 with a non-Motec device, this is helpful. There are six distinct modes available: The first four modes (0–3) emulate an E888.
