Taking the temperature of industry

Accurate temperature measurement is vital in countless industries; everything from pharmaceuticals and food production to materials manufacturing and aviation.

For more than twenty years, New Zealand’s petrochemical industry has looked to MSL for its temperature expertise. Under the leadership of Distinguished Scientist, Dr Peter Saunders, the lab has provided consultancy, advice and training to companies like Methanex and Refining NZ, ensuring the safe and efficient operation of their plants.

The ability to measure temperature in challenging conditions, combined with a deep knowledge of thermal physics has led Saunders to valuable insights for his industrial partners

Measuring furnace temperatures to the required level of accuracy is not straightforward.
