Glass Thermometers and Inserts
-- Steady & Reliable Manufacturer --
Brief Description
Glass Thermometers and their protective inserts are a traditional, highly accurate, and reliable solution for local temperature measurement, particularly where simplicity and resistance to vibration are key.
In-depth Overview
These industrial thermometers typically use a colored liquid (often non-toxic alcohol or mercury-free specialized fluid) sealed in a glass capillary tube. They are usually housed within a protective V-shaped aluminum or brass case that mounts to a thermowell assembly. Glass thermometer inserts—the removable capillary and scale—are designed for easy replacement, ensuring the protective well remains in the process line. They require no calibration or power source, offering excellent long-term stability and making them a standard choice for marine and process piping applications.

Applications
Marine and Shipbuilding: Engine cooling systems, fuel lines, and cargo heating systems where robustness is vital.
Process Piping: Local temperature indication on standard water, oil, and steam lines.
Laboratories and R&D: Used as highly accurate reference thermometers in non-critical applications.
Heating Systems: Monitoring flow and return temperatures in industrial hot water loops.
Key Advantages
Absolute Reliability: No electrical power, no electronic drift—purely mechanical/physical operation.
High Visibility: Large scale and distinct colored liquid column offer clear, unambiguous readings.
Cost-Effective Maintenance: Only the glass insert needs replacement, not the entire assembly or well.
Corrosion Resistance: Protective thermowells made of brass or stainless steel shield the glass from the process media.
