Improving the Safety and Efficiency of Industrial Temperature Monitoring


Temperature monitoring plays a crucial role in many industries, especially where strict safety precautions are essential. In such environments, even tiny temperature differences can have severe impacts, ranging from production outages to serious safety risks. That’s why it is crucial for temperature monitoring systems to not only be accurate and reliable, but also to have mechanisms in place to ensure that they function even in difficult conditions, such as during a power failure or equipment malfunction. Implementing redundant systems is a proven method for achieving the necessary operational reliability.

The SIKA KombiTemp® system is a practical solution that fulfils exactly these requirements. It combines the precision and reliability of both mechanical and electrical temperature measurement methods in a single, compact device. The device consists of a glass insert and an electric temperature sensor, both integrated into the thermometer’s immersion tube. This configuration offers several significant benefits.
One of the big advantages of the KombiTemp® is its increased safety, which it achieves by employing two independent measuring systems in parallel. By identifying deviations between the device’s electrical temperature sensor and mechanical thermometer, you can ensure that errors are quickly detected and corrected. This early detection of errors is essential to minimizing the risk of system failures and increasing the overall operational reliability of your systems.
Integrating the two measurement methods into a single device not only reduces the cost of acquisition, it also lowers the costs for installation and maintenance. Since only one test point is required to monitor the temperature, the required time and resources for installation are considerably less. This makes the KombiTemp® an ideal solution for industrial applications.
The KombiTemp® uses the proven SIKA industrial glass thermometer, which is known for its sturdy construction and durability. The long-term accuracy of the glass insert ensures reliable performance even in the most demanding industrial environments. This contributes to the overall reliability of your temperature monitoring systems and ensures that critical processes can be reliably monitored even under extreme conditions.
The SIKA KombiTemp® is an ideal solution for monitoring temperatures in safety-critical industrial environments. By combining mechanical and electrical measurement methods in a single, compact device, it offers an unparalleled combination of reliability, safety, and value for money. With features such as a Form B connection head (DIN 43729), Form J connection head or an angular connector (DIN EN 175301-803), the KombiTemp® is perfectly suited to the requirements of modern industrial companies, helping to improve safety and efficiency in industrial temperature monitoring while keeping costs down.
