Thermowells
Proper temperature element protection starts with the selection
of the thermowell or protection tube. Conditions that influence
the selection, include the temperature, pressure, flow velocity,
pipe size, insertion length and the process environment and
medium. A variety of materials and process connections are available
for both thermowells and protection tubes. All metallic wells
are constructed in strict compliance with ASTM and ANSI specifications.
For higher temperatures ceramic protection tubes are available.
Fluid flowing by a thermowell forms a turbulent wake that has
a defined frequency. The thermowell must have adequate stiffness
so its natural frequency is greater than the wake frequency.
Let Smart Sensors help you design your well around your process
conditions. Velocity calculations are just a phone call away.
Smart Sensors complete family of bar stock wells and protection
tubes can provide safe and reliable protection for any process
environment.
