Turbine sensors
21 January 2015
A new IMI Sensors Combustion Dynamics Instrumentation brochure from PCB Piezotronics highlights application-specific solutions for monitoring gas turbines. The brochure features sensor placement illustrations and is designed to help gas turbine operators select the optimal pressure sensors and accessories for monitoring gas turbines.
The new brochure lays out the three main applications for detecting and measuring combustion dynamics in gas turbines: Remote Sensors, Close Coupled Sensors, and On-Turbine Instability Sensors (OTIS). In the case of OTIS, IMI's Series 176 high-temperature pressure sensors (986°F, 530°C) are directly mounted at the gas turbine combustor.
The brochure also includes IMI's full line of high-temperature accelerometers for vibration monitoring of gas turbines in heat environments of up to +1200°F (+649°C).
