Thermometer Well (Thermowell)

Absolutely. By isolating the temperature sensor from the process fluid, Thermometer Wells reduce the risk of leaks and contamination. This feature ensures safer handling of hazardous materials, a key concern for tank car applications.

‍

Yes, Thermometer Wells can be designed to withstand high-vibration environments. Reinforced designs and materials help minimize the risk of sensor damage or measurement inaccuracies, making them ideal for applications like rail tank cars.

‍

Yes, our Thermometer Wells are AAR Approved, meeting the stringent standards set by the Association of American Railroads for safety and reliability in tank car applications.

‍

Our Thermometer Wells are available in carbon steel and stainless steel options. These materials are chosen for their durability and compatibility with various industrial applications, ensuring reliable performance in demanding environments.
