Tube Metal Temperature (TMT) sensors can range in complexity and accuracy and are typically used where tube metal integrity is imperative. Heat Recovery Steam Generator (HRSG), Once Through Steam Generator (OTSG), Industrial Boilers & Furnace, Heat Exchanger, and other Fired Process Equipment will require accurate and robust TMTs, some of which are considered critical equipment for plant health and throughput efficiencies.
Aircom Tube Metal Temperature (TMT) Sensors
Explore our Tube Metal Temperature (TMT) Sensors:
Boiler Tube Block Sensor Model (BTB)
Our original first-generation Tube Metal Temperature (TMT) Sensor, the BTB, was created to improve measurements with accuracy and support field operatives and engineers.
The BTB2 is our next-generation Tube Metal Temperature (TMT) Sensor with improved design and functionality. The BTB2 is easy to install, designed to sit perfectly on surfaces and produces accurate measurements.
The Aircom BTB2 is a next-generation Tube Metal Temperature Sensor that delivers precise, real-time readings with fast installation. Built for high-heat environments, it eliminates air gaps and complex setups, offering accuracy, durability, and ease for field crews and engineers.
Why Aircom BTB2
In high-heat, high-pressure industrial environments, precise tube wall measurements can make the difference between safe operation and catastrophic failure. The Aircom BTB2 builds on the Aircom research and BTB decades of instrumentation expertise to deliver a sensor that’s smaller, sealed, and vastly easier to install, without sacrificing accuracy.
Key Features & Benefits
Designed for Fast, One-Weld Installation
Designed for speed and simplicity, BTB2 installs in minutes by a single installer, no chain grips, no metering, no guesswork.
Balances Well on the Surface
The surface-embedded junction captures true tube metal temperature with faster response times and improved accuracy, compared to typical surface-contact sensors.
Durable, Sealed Design
The surface-embedded junction captures true tube metal temperature with faster response timesNo fragile ceramics. No corrosion. Fully metal-sealed patch ensures long-term reliability even in the harshest furnace, boiler, or steam environments. and improved accuracy, compared to typical surface-contact sensors.
Field‑First Geometry & Etched Guidance
Intuitive sensor geometry and etched installation cues reduce the risk of mistakes and make BTB2 forgiving in real-world installs.
Independence from Contractor Lock‑in
Intuitive Tough to damage during the install means you won’t be forced to rely on proprietary installers or service contracts. geometry and etched installation cues reduce the risk of mistakes and make BTB2 forgiving in real-world installs.
