For maximum protection of temperature sensors in aggressive or abrasive media, no matter if it’s high pressure or low pressure applications.
Our thermowells are always tested and compliant to the highest standards, ensuring superior quality products that perform with great accuracy.
Whether in aggressive or abrasive process media, whether in high- or low-temperature ranges: For resistance temperature detectors (RTD’s) or thermocouples (TC’S), to prevent direct exposure of their temperature probes to the medium, thermowells that suit each application are available, including solutions with a temperature sensor protection tube.
Thermowells can be machined from solid-body material or assembled from tube sections and can either be screw-, weld-in or flange-fitted. They are offered in stainless steel as standard and special materials, e.g. Inconel 600, 1.4571, 1.5415 and other materials on request.
Thermowells are offered in different configurations, tapered or straight design and featuring several process connections such as NPT (tapered), BSP (straight) threads and manufactured according to DIN43772. Thermowells are designed and manufactured to support assembly to temperature sensors with either fixed thread, compression fittings, rotatable unions or special solutions on request, including sensor in protection tube configurations.
For food, beverage, pharmaceutical applications where high hygiene standards are required, a clamped thermowell is the optimum solution.
To understand what a thermowell is, think of it as a heavy-duty temperature sensor protection tube. It acts as a gas- and liquid-tight barrier that shields measuring instruments, such as thermocouples and resistance thermometers, from harsh, aggressive, or high-pressure process environments.
This robust protection significantly extends the lifespan of your sensors. By preventing direct exposure to damaging media, you reduce the need for frequent replacements, which translates directly to lower maintenance costs.
But what is thermowell engineering strictly designed for? It ensures that a sensor in protection tube configurations can be extracted and replaced quickly and safely, without interrupting the process flow or draining the system. This eliminates costly downtime and makes it an indispensable component for continuous industrial operations.
