Minco Thermowells, Reduced TIP TW222U45

Protect probes from pressure, flow, and corrosive fluids. Thermowells on this page are machined from solid bar stock. Specify reduced tip style for fast response, tapered style for maximum rigidity in hig h flow conditions. Immerse the thermowell at least 2.5" (65 mm) for accurate readings. The well should extend beyond th e center of the fluid stream without touching the opp osite wall. Installation in an elbow or tee may be necess ary for sufficient immersion in small pipes. Spring-loaded probe installation is recommended, using either spring-loaded holders or bayonet-mount probes. 0.250" diameter probes provide the best fit. For fastest time response, Minco can furnish thermowells with heat sink compound in the tip. Thi s eliminates the air gap between the probe and inside wall of the well and can reduce time constant by as much as 50%. Order AC101750.
