A thermocouple with well is used to measure temperature in environments where direct contact with the medium being measured (such as exhaust gases, fluids, or materials) is either difficult or impractical.
The well is typically a protective casing that holds the thermocouple sensor, providing protection from harsh environments while allowing accurate temperature measurements.
Common Applications:
Power plants: Thermocouples with wells are commonly used in gas turbines, steam turbines, and industrial boilers to monitor exhaust gases or fluid temperatures.
Chemical and petrochemical industries: For temperature measurements in reactors, pipelines, or furnaces.
Automotive and aerospace: Used in testing environments where high temperatures are present, such as in exhaust systems or engine testing.
Thermocouple Types:
The type of thermocouple in this part can vary, but it is likely to be a high-temperature Type K, Type J, or Type R/S thermocouple depending on the application.
The well helps to protect the thermocouple from direct exposure to corrosive or abrasive elements, thus extending the life of the sensor.
