Thermowells
TMS manufacture and/or supply 3 main types of protection tubes or thermowells.
These are:
1. Pipe and tube thermowells for various environments are manufactured. The following alloys are available:
304 SS, 310SS, 316 SS, 446, 904, Alloy 600, Alloy 601, 253 MA.
Some of the more common constructions include:
Screwed parallel
Rolled close (peened)
Flanged parallel
Flanged parallel step-down
2. Solid drilled (barstock) thermowells are manufactured mainly for high pressure and EX- environments. Materials include, but are not limited to:
304 SS, 316 SS, Hastalloy ® C, Alloy 600, Alloy 601, Titanium.
Some of the more common solid drilled constructions include:
Tapered weld-in
Screwed parallel
Screwed step-down
Flanged parallel
Flanged step-down
Flanged tapered
3. Ceramic and other non-metallic types for high temperature and specific chemical environments:
These include but are not limited to:
These are:
- Pipe and tube
- Bar stock (solid drilled)
- Ceramics and other non-metallic thermowells
