Ceramic Thermocouple Well

Designed for use with thermocouples and rtds in large nonpressurized tanks these protection tubes are available in long lengths at a lower cost than thermowells.

Ceramic protection tubes are used for applications where contamination from hostile environments or the cutting action of concentrated and direct flame impingement are factors. Steel and 316 stainless steel protection tubes are more durable than ceramic protection tubes.

316 stainless steel protection tubes are extremely resistant to corrosive chemicals and they can handle higher temperatures than steel. Metal ceramic lt 1 is less porous than most compacts. For example so 2 and so 3 gases have not penetrated lt 1 thermowells over a three year period to affect thermocouple. Thermosensors manufactures thermowells with ceramic protecting tubes with double threaded bushing and come without fittings.

Thermocouple and rtd protection tubes. A leading manufacturer of quality thermocouple and rtd assemblies. There is no significant passage of gases through the body at high temperature except under high vacuum. Such conditions usually require a noble metal thermocouple such as platinum or platinum alloys.

Steel and 316 stainless steel protection tubes are more durable than ceramic protection tubes. For the usual industrial application it is sufficiently impermeable.
