Abstract: A protective tube for insertion into a pipe or vessel containing a medium, a measuring apparatus having such protective tube and a method for manufacturing the protective tube are disclosed, the protective tube including a tubular member having a bore extending between an upper and lower end of the tubular member and having at least one helical fin on at least a section of an outer surface of the tubular member, winding around the outer surface of the tubular member and defining a flow channel along at least a part of the tubular member. At least one geometric parameter of the at least one helical fin is configured based on at least one process condition of the medium in the vessel or pipe.

Abstract: The present disclosure includes a protective tube for insertion into a pipe or vessel containing a medium, a measuring apparatus having such protective tube and to a method for producing the protective tube. The protective tube comprises a tubular member having a bore extending between an upper and lower end of the tubular member, and at least one helical fin formed on at least a section of an outer surface of the tubular member, winding around the outer surface of the tubular member and defining a flow channel along at least a part of the tubular member. An outer surface of the tubular member comprises a surface structure in an area of the at least one flow channel.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a measuring insert for insertion into a protective tube for determining and/or monitoring a temperature of a medium in a vessel or pipe, which protective tube at least partially protrudes into an inner volume of the vessel or pipe, the measuring insert including: an elongated tube; a temperature sensor arranged inside an end region of the measuring insert; and a coupling element connected to the elongated tube in the end region in which the temperature sensor is arranged, which coupling element is embodied and/or dimensioned so as to serve for fixing the measuring insert inside the protective tube in a state in which the measuring insert is introduced into the protective tube.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a coupling adapter for a measuring insert for determining and/or monitoring a temperature of a medium including a temperature sensor, which measuring insert can be introduced into a protective tube for accommodating the measuring insert. The coupling adapter includes a base body, including a bore with a diameter adapted to an outer diameter of the measuring insert, and a coupling element, which is arranged on an outer surface of the base body, which coupling element is embodied and/or dimensioned so as to serve for fixing the measuring insert inside the protective tube in a state in which the measuring insert is introduced into the protective tube. The present disclosure further includes an apparatus for determining and/or monitoring the temperature of a medium comprising such coupling adapter.
