  • Publication number: 20170023415
    Abstract: A surface temperature sensor has a first geometric contact surface for determining the temperature in a vessel and a second geometric contact surface, wherein the first geometric contact surface and the second geometric contact surface are in point and/or linear contact and at least partially spaced variably from this. For improvement of thermal contact an adapter between the first geometric contact surface and the second geometric contact surface may be made of metal, whereby the process vessel facing side has a polygonal surface structure and the temperature sensor facing side of a sack-shaped recess.

  • Publication number: 20160223411
    Abstract: A thermometer has at least one temperature sensor, having a physical variable which changes in a characteristic manner depending on temperature, at least one electrical output for emitting a signal which is a measure for the value of the variable, a transmitter for a sound wave or an electromagnetic wave, which transmitter can be coupled to the temperature sensor and controlled thereby depending on the variable's value, or can radiate the wave at least in part towards the temperature sensor, the wave-temperature sensor interaction depending on the variable's value, and either a wave receiver, which reconverts the wave into an electrical signal, or another unit for converting the wave-temperature sensor interaction into an electrical signal, connected to the electrical output.

  • Publication number: 20160047697
    Abstract: An application temperature pickup device is provided for autonomously measuring the temperature of a thermal-energy-having container, with a housing to be secured to the container, a temperature sensor which measures the temperature of a measuring surface of the outer wall of the container and rests thereon, and associated electronics which are arranged in the housing, as well as a thermoelectric generator which conducts away through the flow of heat the thermal energy of a tapping surface of the outer wall of the container and which has the purpose of supplying energy to the temperature sensor and the electronics, wherein the measuring surface is arranged separated from the tapping surface by a distance in order to reduce the exchange of heat with the tapping surface.
