Aircom is proud to announce the BTB2, our new patent-pending Tube Metal Temperature Sensor (TMT) designed for better measurement, with unmatched accuracy and ease of installation.
When you operate in high-heat, high-pressure environments, there’s little room for error from complex installation and inaccurate measurement. This can cause costly downtime. Aircom BTB2 removes the guesswork and need for several installers and complex processes, while measuring what matters most.
The Aircom BTB2 promise is simple: one installer, one standard weld; time saving and accurate measurement. No chain grips. No metering. No stress.
For years, industry operators and field crews have worked around the limitations of conventional “knife edge” or “weld pad” sensors: difficult to install, prone to error, and dependent on specialized service contracts. Miss the install by just a few degrees, and you could be reading an air gap, not the tube metal itself. That’s not just a small miss; it’s a costly one.
The Aircome BTB2 is smaller, smarter, and sealed. It features a surface-embedded thermocouple junction that delivers real-time, high-fidelity temperature readings with no insulating air gaps. Unlike earlier ceramic designs, the BTB2’s fully metal-sealed patch resists corrosion and welds directly to the tube, giving you the most accurate, durable installation possible.
By design, the Aircom BTB2 is an easy choice for engineers and decision makers, for its performance, reliability, innovation, and elimination of downtime costs. For installers and field operatives, the ease of installation, time savings, and accuracy in the field are the best parts.
This evolution didn’t happen overnight. Informed by research from the University of Alberta and lessons from our first-generation BTB, we developed BTB2 with one goal in mind, to make a good product great.
As we like to say at Aircom: We don’t create the demand. We meet it. And then we make it better.
Whether you're planning your next turnaround or looking to upgrade your fired-heater monitoring strategy, BTB2 is the smart choice for smart teams.
