Resistance Temperature Detector (RTD)
Temperature sensor in various lengths and materials to suit application.
To compliment our supply of temperature instrumentation (RTDs and thermocouples) Fluidic offer industrial grade thermowells for inline temperature measurement. We can supply Solid drilled thermowells, machined from barstock material with welded on flanges or threaded connections that will cope with most industrial applications
The primary function of a thermowell is to allow efficient thermal transfer of the process media through to the temperature measurement instrument. To reduce response time, wall thickness of the thermowell should be no more than is necessary to maintain suitable strength for application. This should consider not only the forces acting on the thermowell by velocity and mass of the fluid, but give consideration to wake frequency. With process data information, Fluidic are able to supply wake frequency calculations with any thermowell proposal, helping with initial design concept before manufacture.
Via our partnership H&B Sensors, Fluidic are able to supply complete temperature instrumentation assemblies. This would normally comprise of the thermowell, temperature sensing element and transmitter puck. Our instrumentation engineers are product trained and are able to help with instrument selection within the full H&B Sensors supply scopes. A lot of temperature instrumentation can be custom made for application. Please call either office for more information (Glasgow 0141 641 5920, Warrington 01925 572401).
