Reliability & Engineering Risk Analysis

Failure Mode & Root Cause
Thermal stress cracking
Cause: Rapid temperature cycling or thermal shock exceeding the sensor's design limits, causing material fatigue and fracture in the probe sheath or sensing element.
Chemical corrosion/degradation
Cause: Exposure to aggressive process chemicals (acids, caustics, solvents) that attack the probe materials (e.g., Inconel sheath, PTFE insulation), leading to pitting, thinning, or insulation breakdown.
Maintenance Indicators
  • Erratic or drifting temperature readings compared to other process indicators or control loops
  • Visible physical damage to the probe (cracks, bulging sheath, discoloration) or leakage at the connection point
Engineering Tips
  • Implement a thermal shock prevention protocol: ensure gradual heating/cooling rates during reactor startups/shutdowns, and use thermal wells or protection tubes to buffer the probe from direct rapid temperature changes.
  • Select probe materials compatible with the specific chemical environment (e.g., Hastelloy for acidic conditions, ceramic coatings for abrasion resistance) and regularly inspect/replace based on corrosion rate data and manufacturer's service life recommendations.
