Product overview
What it does, and where it fits.
The thermometer pocket is the closed glass sheath that goes into the DN 25 branch of a bend with thermometer branch. It holds the probe in the flow while keeping it dry, so the instrument can be withdrawn or replaced without breaking containment.
No dimensional datasheet was supplied for this item, so its dimensions are confirmed on enquiry rather than estimated here.
Features
Built into every unit.
- Borosilicate 3.3 with beaded ends and backing flanges
- Dimensionally matched to the rest of the pipeline range
- Drilling to BS 10 Table E, BS 10 Table F or ASA
- Made to your dimensions where a standard size does not fit
Benefits
Why it earns its place in the line.
- Completely inert to almost all process media — no metal pick-up and no contamination of the batch
- Full visibility of the process along the whole line
- Smooth, non-wetting bore that resists fouling and cleans easily
- Excellent thermal shock resistance from borosilicate 3.3
- Modular flanged construction — sections can be swapped without cutting or welding

No dimensional datasheet was supplied for this component, so no dimension table is published here. Send us your bore and setting-out requirement and we will issue a dimensioned drawing for approval — we have deliberately not estimated figures from the neighbouring products.
FAQ
Questions we are asked about this item.
Because no datasheet was supplied for this item. Rather than estimate dimensions from similar products, we confirm them against a drawing on enquiry.
Yes. Send a sketch or an isometric with the bore and setting-out dimensions and we will return a drawing for sign-off before fabrication.
Enquiry
Tell us your line size — we'll confirm the spec.
Send the bore, the media, the temperature and pressure, and the flange standard you work to. Drawings and custom sizes welcome.
Not sure which spec fits your process?
Send your requirement — media, temperature, pressure, dimensions — and we'll recommend the right product or fabricate it.
