Thermowell/protection tube In principle, the operation of a mechanical thermometer is possible without a thermow-
ell/protection tube with low process-side loading (low pressure, low viscosity and low
flow rates).
However, in order to enable exchanging the thermometer during operation (e.g. instru-
ment replacement or calibration) and to ensure a better protection of the instrument
and also the plant and the environment, it is advisable to use a thermowell/protection
tube from the extensive WIKA thermowell/protection tube portfolio.
→ For further information on the wake frequency calculation of the thermowell/protec-
tion tube, see technical information IN 00.15.
