Temperature measuring system
 In a continuous slab caster, for example, the system measures tundish molten steel temperature using tundish probe, recorder and temperature monitoring circuits having separate outputs to a temperature indicator and an industrial process controller. Monitoring circuits periodically reject errors and discontinuities in temperature traces, reject open thermocouple or burn-out conditions, and advise the probe operator by way of the indicator to accept a present good reading or take another sample. The last bonafide temperature reading is held at the output to the process controller, thereby eliminating control errors caused by errors or discontinuities in temperature traces.
