Thermowells
A Thermowell is a protective fitting used to shield temperature sensors, such as thermocouples and resistance temperature detectors (RTDs), from harsh process conditions. By isolating the sensor from direct contact with the process media, thermowells ensure sensor longevity, accuracy, and safety in high-pressure, high-temperature, and corrosive environments. These fittings are essential in industries such as oil and gas, chemical processing, power generation, and pharmaceuticals.
