A thermowell is a thermally conductive socket recommended to:
– protect delicate instrument sensing elements against corrosive effects
– permit instrument interchange or calibration check without disturbing
or closing down the process.
Thermowells are available for high pressures, high temperatures and
high velocity applications. Selected on pressure, temperature, flow,
vibration and corrosion service parameters basis, basic thermowell types
include: threaded; socket weld; flanged; full penetration weld; Van Stone
