Page 4: Shipping Preparation, Storage & Handling
Shipping Preparation, Storage & Handling Transport Care should be used in carrying, moving, and shipping the HTP/HTX thermocouple. A significant portion of the HTP/HTX is constructed of ceramic. Ceramics are very brittle at ambient temperature and can be damaged by mechanical shock. -

“loose”. If loose, the thermocouple is broken and must be repaired prior to installation. The shipping pipe and the custom built protective shipping carton are reusable and may be saved for reshipment or storage of the HTP/HTX assembly. g. If any parts appear to be damaged, contact Delta Controls immediately. Page 5... -
Page 6: Inspect The Nozzle
Inspect the Nozzle Because the “as-built” dimensions of the refractory and nozzle can (and often do) differ from the design specifications, it is important to verify these dimensions before installing the thermocouple. Installing a thermocouple that is not properly sized for the nozzle and refractory can result in breakage or inaccurate measurements. -

HRW Refractory Well to extend approximately 1 inch (2.5 cm) past the refractory hot face. If these conditions are not met, the result may be inaccurate measurement and/or breakage due to mechanical interference or thermal shock.

Contact Delta Controls to arrange for a thermocouple that is correctly sized for the installation.

Installing the Thermocouple Vertical Installation (For non-vertical installations do steps 1-5, proceed to page 14.) Carefully set HRW Refractory Well down onto the hole in Double-check for proper clearance prior to thermocouple the refractory. The collar of the HRW should rest flat insertion by measuring from the bottom of the refractory well up against the refractory surface and the tip should extend to the flange face. - Page 10 . Place approximately 8 – 10 each of the soft compressible Place the two soft compressible collar rings from the HNP nozzle rings, with the ¾” (19 mm) center hole, in the bottom of Nozzle Insulation Kit, having an I.D. of 2.75” (70 mm), the nozzle.

The installer then grasps the unit by the top housing, and the ceramic element well may be permitting the unit to hang vertically plumb. With no assistance, center the element well over the center hole in the top insulating easily broken.

This will verify that the element well was not broken during installation, and that there are no problems with the purge connections.

Page 13: Non-Vertical Installation
Non-Vertical Installation In non-vertical installations, insertion of the thermocouple unit can be difficult. The installer must attempt to support the full weight of the thermocouple unit while fully inserting it into the centerline of the nozzle insulating materials at the appropriate angle without allowing the weight of the unit to impart side-loads on the element protective well. -

Such breakage is sometimes cause by shifting of the refractory due to thermal expansion. When properly installed, the thermal well can withstand some shifting of the refractory, but large shifts can cause failures.
