Mounting and Wiring
Immersion probes measure the temperature inside
pipes carrying liquid or steam and are installed in a
304 stainless-steel thermowell. Mount the thermow-
ell horizontally or with the open end facing down
(to allow any condensation to drain). Position the
thermowell to prevent contact with the inside of the
pipe.
1. Install the pipe fittings required, by local code,
for a thermowell into the dry/drained pipe. If the
system is pressured, use a hot tap.
2. Install the thermowell. (See the Accessories
section.)
3. Fill the well with thermal compound to ensure
complete conductivity from well to probe.
NOTE: The probe can slide within its collar on the
case as it is inserted into the thermowell.
4. Remove the screws holding the cover to the case
and remove the cover.
5. Insert the probe into the well and tighten the
threaded connection on the case.
6. From inside the case, push the probe as far as it
will go into the well.
7. Feed the thermistor wire leads through the
conduit or hole opening.
8. Connect the thermistor wires to the cable with
butt-splices or soldering. (Wire nuts are not
recommended.) The two-wire sensor is not
polarity sensitive.
9. Reinstall the cover and screws.
