Heavy-Duty, Socket-Weld Thermowells are available in a variety of materials, process connection sizes, lengths and optional lagging extensions. Thermowell specifications should be determined based on process conditions which include strength, temperature, pressure and corrosion-resistance requirements. The Heavy-Duty Socket-Weld is designed to be used with a 3000 class weld-o-let which allows the thermowell to be welded permanently into the process. They are designed with a standard 0.260" or 0.385" bore diameter to accommodate sensing elements with a 0.252" or 0.377" maximum diameter, respectively. The tapered design is suited for heavy-duty applications where greater rigidity is required due to process conditions. These wells are available as separate components or as part of complete sensor assemblies.
