Thermowell

(2 customer reviews)

thermowell is a protective tube or enclosure used to shield temperature sensors (like thermocouples or RTDs) from harsh conditions in industrial processes. It allows the sensor to measure temperature without being directly exposed to the process fluid, pressure, or flow, thereby extending the sensor’s life and allowing easy replacement without shutting down the process.
