A process fluid temperature measurement system includes a thermowell configured to couple to a process fluid conduit and extend through a wall of the process fluid conduit. A temperature sensor assembly is disposed within the thermowell and includes a first temperature sensitive element and a second temperature sensitive element. The first temperature sensitive element is disposed within the thermowell adjacent a distal end of the thermowell. The second temperature sensitive element is spaced apart from the first temperature sensitive element along a spacer having a known thermal conductivity. Transmitter circuitry is coupled to the first and second temperature sensitive elements and is configured to perform a heat flux calculation to provide a process fluid temperature output.

A device monitors the operating temperature of at least one set of bearings in a plurality of sets of bearings. The at least one set of bearings is arranged between a shaft and a carrier. The carrier has at least one temperature sensor that senses the temperature of the at least one set of bearings and generates a signal representative of an operating temperature of the at least one set of bearings. The at least one temperature sensor is operatively electrically connected to at least one controller. The controller processes the signal from the temperature sensor, including determining the operating temperature of the respective at least one set of bearings and whether the operating temperature of the respective at least one set of bearings exceeds at least one threshold temperature. The controller memory holds a unique identifier associated with the at least one bearing set.

Process inserts, assemblies, and related methods for use in monitoring high velocity fluids or supporting instruments that monitor and manage high velocity fluids are disclosed. Exemplary inserts include a head having a cavity for receiving an instrument, a shank, and an integral flange. The shank includes an elongated body having a first end disposed proximate to the head, a free end opposite the first end, and a threaded portion spaced apart from the first and free ends. Exemplary process insert assemblies include a process insert having a shank and a threaded support disposed around the shank. Methods of making and using process inserts are also disclosed. For example, a method of installing a process insert on a container includes inserting the free end of the process insert in the interior volume of a container containing a high velocity fluid.

The temperature sensor can have a core having a length extending between two ends, the core having a cavity extending along the length, a wire extending in the cavity, along the length, the wire fixed at both ends, the core having a transversal aperture at an intermediary location between the ends, the transversal aperture leading into the cavity, and a potting filling a portion of the cavity and supporting the wire at the intermediary location of the transversal aperture.

The present disclosure relates to a food thermometer with a housing comprising a pointed end for a measurement of a temperature inside a product to be cooked. Inside the housing there is a battery arranged at the pointed end of the food thermometer. The battery is encased by a thermal insulation located between the housing and the battery.

The disclosure further relates to a method of manufacturing a food thermometer. Thermally insulating material is brought into a housing part of the housing of the food thermometer and heated. The battery is pushed into the heated thermally insulating material. The thermally insulating material is then cooled.
