Pipeline Integrity Temperature Sensor Package for Remote Monitoring at Test Stations
Introducing the CorTalk RMU1+TS1
Robust, reliable, and cost-effective temperature monitoring of pipeline assets is now available from MOBILTEX, engineered for performance in even the most extreme and remote locations.
The MOBILTEX TS1 configurations enable field technicians to install remote, battery-powered GPS-enabled temperature sensing capabilities that are compatible with our CorTalk RMU1 platforms. Measurement data is accessible 24/7 within our CorView Platform cloud-based interface to enhance pipeline integrity data collection and help ensure the fitness of the pipeline in locations that have historically been cost-prohibitive to monitor.
Accurate temperature monitoring on multi-product lines requires wide temperature ranges, depending on the product and the season. The TS1 RTD transmitter connects to any standard Pt100 resistance sensor, is fully configurable, and provides high stability over an extremely wide range making it ideal for any field application.
The MOBILTEX TS1 enables pipeline engineers to easily and cost effectively monitor for extreme temperature fluctuation to identify risks of accelerated pipe coating deterioration and identify potential geohazard events where soil and moisture conditions shifts have occurred affecting normal temperature, which may have also damaged the pipeline. The TS1 also will allow users to monitor for pipeline temperature variances to enable more accurate calculation of volumetric flow for leak detection system calibration.
| Features | Benefits |
|---|---|
| Fast, simple installation | The compact, weather-proof RMU1+TS1 is designed to fit entirely inside a standard CP test station and can be installed in about 30 minutes |
| Engineered for ease-of-use | Compatible with any RMU1 Generation 4, the TS1 temperature sensor package can connect to any standard Pt100 resistance sensor and is fully configurable, provides high stability, and can monitor pipeline or soil temperature |
