What is Thermowell?
Thermowell is small tubular fitting which is used in temperature measurement to protect the temperature sensor from damage that could occur during an industrial process. Thermowell is otherwise commonly known as solid drilled pockets as they consist of a metal bar stock that is drilled to create an open end where the sense is inserted. If the sensor was to break during application, the user could easily replace the existing sensor with a new one.
Common uses of thermowell is very similar to that of other components. Thermowell can be used in both an existing temperature sensor setup or can be added to a new design specification. Thermowell used in many high temperature applications because they can work effectively up to temperatures surrounding 1200 °C.
What Is The Advantage of Using Thermowells?
There are many reasons why you may choose to include a thermowell in your design specification. The main reason that people often choose to use them is because they are very durable, and provide excellent protection for the sensor from external damage caused by corrosive liquids or intense temperature.
We can provide a range of additional features to your new thermowell include addition of process thread or a custom made flange which we are able to weld and test to your specification
