Introducing the latest in temperature sensing and heating technology. BCE’s High-Temp Vacuum thermowell assembly is a robust, laser-welded design integrating the sensing capabilities of type K thermocouples. These thermocouples can be easily mounted to any part in a vacuum chamber by the means of shims with mounting holes. Furthermore, they can be positioned with ease due to integrated compression fittings, which also allow for easy replacement of the thermocouples should the need arise. A 304 Stainless Steel flange achieves a vacuum tight seal into any vacuum or degassing chamber port and there is virtually no outgassing, enhancing performance in high-vacuum environments. Moreover, a cartridge heater embedded inside an Aluminum 6061 thermowell allows for uniform and efficient heating of the chamber. BCE’s Hi-Temp Vacuum Thermowell Assembly: breaking barriers in high vacuum applications.
