Description
Watlow Thermocouples meet a broad range of sensing needs. Our extensive line of thermocouples feature flexible SERV-RITE® wire insulated with woven fiberglass or high temperature engineered resins. Additionally, for added protection against abrasion, products can be provided with stainless steel wire braid and flexible armor. Also ASTM E230 color-coding identifies standard catalog thermocouple types. The addition of a metal sheath over the thermocouple provides rigidity for accurate placement and added protection of the sensing junction. Furthermore mounting options include springs, ring terminals, specialized bolts, pipe style clamps and shims.
Companies engaging in critical process control of food and metals rely on Watlow thermocouples. Watlow designs and manufactures sensors to meet customers’ industrial and commercial equipment needs. ASH Equipment Company is an Authorized Distributor of Watlow Thermocouple products.
