Threaded Thermowells

Thermowells - Solid or Welded Construction

  • Ideal for when an application demands the removal of a sensor without interrupting the process
  • Our thermowells can either be of welded construction with a parallel sheath or machined from solid with a parallel or tapered sheath
  • Available in a variety of constructions with either screwed BSP or NPT male process entry. Other threads are available upon request
  • Custom built in a wide range of sheath materials to meet customer requirements on a prompt delivery
  • Testing and Certification services include:
    ASME PTC 19.3 TW-2010 (wake frequency calculation), pressure testing, MTC’s, X-Ray, dye penetration, full penetration weld and NACE MR0175 (hardness test)
