Utilização de sensores tipo termopar para qualificação de equipamentos industriais

Abstract

The thermocouple, also identified as a thermocouple, is one of the most relevant sensors used in the measurement of temperature in the various industrial sectors, they are indispensable for the qualification and validation of hospital equipment. In this way, this study aimed to show the importance of thermal qualification in the adjustment of autoclaves machines, for better efficiency and quality in the processes, avoiding stoppages in the autoclaves, certifying that the works are being carried out correctly. The present study is characterized by being exploratory and descriptive, it is of a qualitative nature, of an application character, from the realization of a Case Study in a hospital industry in the city of Manaus-AM, using the following data collection: gathering of documentation data, photographic records and field observations in the organization in the maintenance sector. The results showed that the maximum and minimum temperature summaries for each sector were adequate to perform the qualification of hospital equipment, enabling better reliability in the assessment of sterility, which prove the efficiency of thermocouple sensors. It is concluded that this study allowed analysis of the practice based on evidence and scientific research, so that professionals in the field of industrial engineering are subsidized with better clarifications.
