Temperature Measurement & Control

  • Variety of temperature measurement solutions up to 3000°C using furnaces, induction heating or infrared emitters 
  • Additional temperature measurement options include pyrometry, thermography, and thermocouples 
  • Can be fitted to Phoenix test machines or existing equipment

 

The key to testing at elevated temperatures is the confidence in the temperature measurement and control. One of the key considerations is the maximum target temperature and the rate at which you want to heat and cool your samples, as this will help to guide you choice of heating technology.

  • Overview

Temperature Measurement and Control

Phoenix is familiar with the challenges of validating and calibrating temperature measurements, as we have UKAS accreditation for testing at temperatures up to 1500°C. 
Our temperature measurement and control solutions can help you decide on the best instrumentation for your testing requirements.
 

 

Traditional Furnaces 

  • Single or three-zone options
  • Split or tubular design
  • Limited heating profile due to furnace windings
  • Temperatures up to 1200°C
  • Good temperature uniformity on conventional samples
  • Difficult to operate in different atmospheres
  • Slow heating and cooling rates compared to other alternatives
  • Can directly heat any type of material

 

Infrared Emitters 

  • The number of emitters can be varied from one upwards
  • The shape and arrangement of the emitters can be varied, with brackets designed to suit the sample and temperature profile required
  • Suitable for testing up to 900°C
  • Uniform or non-uniform temperature profile across the sample or component as required
  • Can operate in a range of atmospheres
  • Rapid heating and cooling rates
  • Can directly heat any type of material

 

Induction Heating 

  • Traditionally used with a single coil
  • The shape of the coil can be adjusted to suit the sample and temperature profile required
  • Suitable for testing up to 3000°C
  • Uniform or non-uniform temperature profile across the sample or component as required
  • Can operate in a range of atmospheres
  • Rapid heating and cooling rates
  • A susceptor can be used to heat non-metallic or non-uniform samples

 

In addition to the method of heating, temperature measurement can be carried out in a number of ways including thermocouples, thermography and pyrometry. The correct types of measurement system will depend upon the temperature range, sample material, geometry and test atmosphere. 

If you need to carry out testing at elevated temperatures, why not consider outsourcing to our UKAS accredited laboratory? We offer high temperature testing up to 2,000°C (UKAS accredited to 1,000°C), or extremely low temperature testing to -196°C*.
