Exhaust gas thermocouples for LM2500 and LM5000 land-based gas turbines are Type K sensors with +0.4% accuracy, hermetically sealed to 1×10⁻⁶ scc/sec He, and rated for operation from -20°F to +800°F at the termination head and -20°F to +392°F at the mating cable, with 100% humidity tolerance and 1×10⁸ ohms insulation resistance at 500VDC. The design incorporates Type K termination studs to prevent cross-wiring and an over sheath that eliminates the need for vibration-prone shims, and is fully interchangeable with OEM parts. Dielectric strength is verified at 300VAC with 5mA maximum leakage. The sensor is not rated for flight use.
Conax Technologies has introduced a solution that offers significant cost savings for LM2500 and LM5000 exhaust gas temperature measurement applications. Conax has a proven history of manufacturing reliable temperature sensors for large frame gas turbines and aeroderivative engines and now offers a cost-effective, aftermarket equivalent for LM engines. The Conax exhaust gas sensors for LM2500 and LM5000 turbines are engineered from state-of-the-art materials that are fully interchangeable with OEM products and offer excellent mechanical strength and superior oxidation creep resistance. The Conax solution is available at a competitive price point for all LM ground-based turbines.
