ABSTRACT:
A high-temperature connectorized thermocouple probe assembly for use in land gas turbine environments consistent with the present invention comprises a thermocouple junction having a plurality of conductors, a high temperature connector having at least one conductor, a length of cable having at least one conductor coupling at least one of the conductors of the thermocouple junction with at least one conductor of the high temperature connector; and a bushing disposed around the length of cable. In a further aspect, a land gas turbine system consistent with the present invention comprises a land gas turbine and a thermocouple probe assembly disposed at least partly within the land gas turbine, wherein the thermocouple probe assembly comprises a thermocouple junction and a high temperature connector coupled to the thermocouple junction, and wherein the thermocouple probe assembly is removably connected to, or is adapted for removable connection to, the land gas turbine via the high temperature connector. The land gas turbine system may further comprise a device for housing the thermocouple probe assembly, wherein the thermocouple probe assembly further comprises a length of cable coupling the thermocouple junction with the high temperature connector and a bushing disposed around the length of cable, wherein the bushing is adapted to mate with a corresponding stop in the device for housing the thermocouple probe assembly. The high temperature connector may be adapted to operate in a temperature of at least approximately 800 degrees F.
