Year Long Test

 

  Glass Manufacturer Gives AccuTru SVS Sensor System High Marks

AccuTru’s Self-Validating/Diagnostic Sensor out performs Type R & B sensors in year long comparison test ....... reports a Fortune 500 Company.

A major US based manufacturing company conducted a year long test of the performance of AccuTru’s Self-Validating/Diagnostic sensor (SVS 3211) versus Type R & B sensors, in a high temperature combustion/melter environment.  Data was collected and analyzed in 2-hour intervals, 2-week intervals and at 12-months of service. 

The results showed that “... over a longer time interval the AccuTru is showing true differences from the mean more distinctly.”  In addition, the data shows “During the periods examined the AccuTru reading shifted up, while the Type R and Type B thermocouples shifted down.  Optic temperatures taken at the time indicate an increase in temperature ... the AccuTru sensor was the only one to record this change.  The operating parameters of the furnace had been changed so that the furnace was “operating at a higher temperature.”

The conclusions of the test data shows “The AccuTru (SVS 3211) is superior to both the R and B type thermocouples.” A detailed summary of the results is available on request by contacting us by downloading this report file.  SVS Test Data.pdf
