Thermowells are used to protect temperature sensors from being exposed directly to the process and enabling the sensors to be removed during operation thus eliminating the need to drain the system and prolonging the lifespan of the temperature sensor. It is possible to construct a thermowell in numerous shapes, sizes and materials in order to fit the requirements of end user. This means that it is possible to have them customized in order to best fit the conditions in which you want to use them – typically in order to align with size requirements and temperature. Usually most thermowell types follow the international technical standard: DIN 43772. This standard defines a series of default designs for thermowell types that makes them uniform in appearance as well as functionality. At EMCO Controls, we offer a wide selection of thermowells and are able to manufacture and deliver quickly according to customer’s wishes and requirements.
