Cement Kiln Sensor Stands up to Highly Abrasive, High Vibration Environment Conax engineered an 8 AWG Type K thermocouple with a heat and abrasion resistant alloy grade HT outer protective pipewell to withstand the constant rotation and vibration inside a cement kiln. Industry: Cement Kiln Manufacturing Application: Measurement of temperature inside a rotating kiln, operating temperature 330°C, and stressed by continuous high vibration. The material being processed is nickel laterite ore, an irregular crushed stone approximately 6'' in diameter, with a high moisture content. This material is very abrasive. Challenge: This application needed a thermocouple assembly rugged enough to measure ore temperature in a very abrasive, high vibration kiln environment. Solution: A Type K thermocouple m
