Stainless Steel 316 material heavy duty tapered thermowells
1.Breif Introduction.
Thermowell is a pressure-tight receptacle that protects and extends the life of a temperature sensor in
processing applications where the sensor is not mechanically or chemically compatible with the process
environment. Installed directly into piping systems, thermowells facilitate sensor replacement in high
pressure pipelines and eliminate the need to interrupt the process flow or drain the process system for
sensor maintenance functions. The use of standardized thermowells permits simple relocation of sensors
throughout a plant.
2. Characteristics.
Optional Tantalum sheath, which can be permanently attached, for added protection
Wake Frequency, Flow-Induced Stress, and Process Pressure calculations can be made to support the thermowell design.
Full penetration weld standard
Wake frequency calculations
Integrated Extension for simple installation
Wide variety of material options

4. Application
The thermowell protects the instrument from the pressure, flow-induced forces, and chemical effects of the process fluid. Typically a thermowell is made from metal bar stock. The end of the thermowell may be of reduced diameter (as is the case with a tapered or stepped shank thermowell) to improve the speed of response.
