A thermowell is a cylindrical fitting used to protect temperature sensors installed when measuring liquid such as in the production of beer, the thermowell protects the thermometer when measuring the temperature as well as protects the liquid from contamination.
Thermowells are recommended whenever a temperature element is to be inserted into a process where corrosion, pressure, abrasion, or shear forces may threaten the life of the element. so the working condition requests thermowell material to be with high wear resistance,high temperature resistance,high corrosion resistance and strong impact strength,which is definitely property of tungsten carbide.
Tungsten carbide thermowell ideally suited for use in very abrasive environment such as in air preheaters & coal mills of coal based power plants (mill classifier or pulveriser outlet) or steam generation units, for temperature measurement of coal and air mixture.
Oston Carbide are supplying various dimensions of tungsten carbide thermowell currently,and customized design are more than welcome too,please contact us for further information: info@ostoncarbide.com
