Thermometer Well (Sleeve) Afriso 1/2" L-120, Connection 15x16, Model 555035

Thermometer well (sleeve) Afriso 1/2" L-120, Connection 15x16, Model 555035 is a protective pocket designed to house temperature sensors and thermometers in heating, plumbing and industrial systems. The sleeve provides a secure separation between the measuring element and the process media, allowing sensor replacement or maintenance without interrupting operation or draining the circuit. Constructed for a standard 1/2" external thread and a 120 mm insertion length, the pocket is suitable for pipe connections with 15x16 dimensions and supports reliable temperature measurement integration.

Advantages

The Afriso thermometer well enables tool-free sensor removal and replacement while the system remains pressurised, reducing downtime and maintenance effort. Its defined insertion length ensures consistent sensor positioning for repeatable measurements. The metal sleeve protects sensors from corrosion, flow-induced wear and direct contact with aggressive or particulate-laden media, increasing sensor lifetime and lowering operating costs.

Suitable for

• Heating systems and boilers
• Domestic and commercial plumbing circuits
• Hydronic systems and radiators
• Industrial temperature monitoring where removable sensors are required

Key specifications

• Thread type: external 1/2"
• Insertion length: 120 mm
• Pipe connection compatibility: 15x16
• Function: protective sleeve for temperature sensors and thermometers
• Material: metal protective pocket for mechanical and chemical isolation of sensors

How to use

Install the thermometer well into the corresponding pipe connection so that the insertion length positions the sensor at the required point in the flow. Tighten the 1/2" external thread to the mating fitting or union using appropriate tools and sealing material if needed for the application. Insert the temperature sensor or thermometer into the sleeve until it reaches the intended depth, and secure the sensor fitting according to the sensor manufacturer's instructions. When maintenance or sensor replacement is required, withdraw the sensor from the pocket without draining the system where appropriate.

Usage recommendations

Verify compatibility between the sensor diameter and the inner diameter of the pocket, ensure proper sealing at threaded connections, and choose appropriate materials or coatings if the sleeve will be exposed to aggressive media or high corrosion risk.
