Precision Thermocouples and RTD Sensors for Industrial Use
Reliable, cost-effective electrochemical sensing systems for emissions control, gas detection, and industrial safety compliance
Overview
Reliable temperature measurement is critical across industries where environmental control and safety compliance are paramount. Thermocouples and RTD (Resistance Temperature Detectors) sensors offer durable, responsive, and highly accurate solutions for capturing temperature data in real time. These technologies are vital for optimizing combustion processes, emissions monitoring, energy efficiency, and industrial automation.
Emissions and Stack provides advanced temperature sensing systems tailored to North American industries and B2B needs.

Case Studies
Chemical Manufacturing Facility, Texas
A high-volume chemical processor in Texas integrated Type K thermocouples into its emission stack monitoring system. With the help of Emissions and Stack, the company implemented multi-point temperature sensing across different heights within its stack, increasing compliance accuracy with EPA reporting requirements. Results included a 27% reduction in energy use and more reliable NOx readings.
Cement Plant, Illinois
Our team supported a cement plant in Illinois facing challenges with temperature drift during kiln operations. By deploying RTD sensors with digital converters and remote monitoring software, they achieved greater control over combustion uniformity, improving production efficiency by 18%.
Canada – Waste-to-Energy Facility, Ontario
A waste-to-energy facility in Ontario needed a scalable, low-maintenance way to monitor exhaust gas temperatures. Emissions and Stack provided high-temperature thermocouples with cloud-enabled monitoring dashboards. The system allowed for 24/7 oversight and reduced sensor calibration downtime by 40%.
