ARKLAY S. RICHARDS CO., INC. thermocouples and anemometers
The Arklay S. Richards Co., Inc. has been manufacturing high performance industrial sensors since 1938. We take great pride in producing high quality sensors for all types of industrial applications. If you are measuring the temperature in an induction furnace with one of our Industrial MGO Thermocouples or the wind speed of a hurricane with one of our high speed industrial C5 Series Cup Anemometers, you can always rely on the superior quality, accuracy, and durability, of all our products.
thermocouples
Thermocouples and Temperature Sensors for Temperature Control and Process Monitoring
The Arklay S. Richards Co., Inc. manufactures thermocouples used for accurate high temperature monitoring and precise temperature control. Our thermocouples range from extremely small wire probes to very large industrial pipe and thermowell assemblies. In industrial applications, Type K thermocouples are most common but thermocouples can be ordered with Type B, Type E, Type J, Type N, Type R, Type S, Type T, Type C, or Type P calibrations as well.
We can fabricate metal thermocouple protection tubes from stainless steel, Inconel 600, 446 stainless, Hastelloy C276, or any of the high temperature, and corrosion resistant alloys. Our metal protection tubes are manufactured in pipe configurations or thermowells can be machined from solid bar stock. Ceramic protection tubes for High temperature Type R and Type S Platinum thermocouples, are available with Alumina protection tubes and other ceramic materials like Mullite and Zirconia.
Anemometers and wind vanes
High Performance Anemometers and Wind Vanes for Industrial Wind Monitoring
The Arklay S. Richards Co., Inc. manufactures the finest high performance wind sensors available today to measure wind speed in harsh environments. Our C5 Series High Speed Anemometer is made from all stainless steel and Titanium to perform in the most severe high wind applications. Our C5 Anemometers have been wind tunnel tested up to 230 MPH and our defense industry customers run our wind sensor over 200 MPH on a regular basis. To measure wind direction we also manufacture our D5 Series Wind Vanes which are also made from stainless steel components to survive in high wind industrial applications. All of our C5H Heated Anemometers and D5H Heated Wind Vanes are available with powerful internal heating elements for cold weather installations. Compact C5C Anemometers and D5C Wind Vanes are also available where space and weight are a concern.
