What is Thermowell? Thermowell Types & Application

  A thermowell is a protection for the temperature sensors in the form of cylindrical shaped pressure-tight fittings. It is used to protect the temperature sensors which are inserted into vessels and pipes for being used in different industrial applications. It is used to create a barrier between the process media and sensing element as the process media can be corrosive and can negatively impact the sensing element. Moreover, it protects the sensing elements from fluid velocity and pressure. Thermowell Types: 1. Threaded Thermowell They are usually used in smaller pipes where the temperature of the non-corrosive fluid is measured. Threaded thermowell is screwed in the pipe for use and generally does not require replacements. 2. Flanges Weld Thermowell As the name suggests, flanged thermowell is flanged at the top end. It is connected to the pipe using nuts and bolts. It is mostly used in applications that require frequent replacements and involve high temperatures. 3. Socket Weld...

What are the Uses and Types of RTDs?

  Resistant Temperature Detector (RTD) is a type of temperature sensor, often referred to as resistance thermometers. Its works on the basis of change in resistance of metal due to change in temperature. RTD  is used in a variety of applications and is preferred over other types of temperature sensors for its accuracy, ease of use, repeatability, and cost. Temperature sensors are used across different domestic and industrial applications. Resistance thermometers are most commonly used for temperature measurement from -200C to 600C, some sensors are designed to operate as high as 1000 C. Resistant Temperature Detectors are available with a variety of resistance element materials. Two Most Widely Used Sensor Types Are: 1. Wire-wound RTD This type of RTD has a small diameter wire, most commonly of platinum that is wound in a coil placed inside a ceramic/glass insulator. Extension wires are welded to this platinum coil that extend outside the insulator body. This type of sensor i...

What Are The Types of Pressure Gauges?

  Types of Pressure Gauges  According to Usage 1. Commercial and Industrial Pressure Gauges  – Commercial gauges are general purpose pressure measuring instruments commonly used in Heating Ventilation Air Conditioning (HVAC) and Refrigeration. Industrial pressure gauge is suitable for production processes that would not block the pressure system. Industrial gauges are used in manufacturing industries, OEM applications, hydraulic, water treatment and RO industries. 2. Process Pressure Gauges  – In industries where the production process functions under extreme conditions, subjected to vibrations, pressure spikes and a corrosive environment (like in certain areas of petrochemical and other chemical industries), a process pressure gauge can be safely used. 3. Low Pressure Gauges  – These are suitable for measurement of liquid and gaseous pressure, provided they don’t obstruct its functioning. Plants construction processes, pneumatic systems and cleanrooms often nee...
