Waterproof Thermocouple

Waterproof Thermocouple

Moisture is one of the biggest enemies of temperature sensors. Water ingress can cause short circuits, signal drift, and complete sensor failure. In chemical washing towers, outdoor pipelines, food processing plants, and marine applications, sensors face constant exposure to water, steam, and cleaning chemicals.

Description

Durable Temperature Sensing in Wet and Harsh Environments

 

Moisture is one of the biggest enemies of temperature sensors. Water ingress can cause short circuits, signal drift, and complete sensor failure. In chemical washing towers, outdoor pipelines, food processing plants, and marine applications, sensors face constant exposure to water, steam, and cleaning chemicals. Anhui Tiankang's waterproof thermocouple solves this problem with a permanently sealed construction that keeps moisture out.

The waterproof design starts with the junction box. We use a high-grade cast aluminum housing with precision-machined sealing surfaces. A durable silicone rubber gasket creates a tight seal between the cover and the base. All cable entries use compression-type cable glands with rubber seals. These glands grip the cable firmly and prevent water from traveling along the wire into the junction box. The entire assembly meets IP65 ingress protection standards. This means the unit is completely protected against dust and low-pressure water jets from any direction.

Waterproof thermocouple products are ideal for outdoor installations. Rain, snow, and condensation will not affect performance. In food processing facilities, high-pressure washdowns happen daily. Our waterproof sensors survive these cleaning cycles without damage. Chemical plants often have corrosive vapors that condense on equipment. The waterproof housing prevents this moisture from reaching the sensitive internal connections.

Rugged Construction for Demanding Applications

 

The sensing element uses the same reliable technology as our standard thermocouples. Customers can choose from K, E, J, T, N, S, R, or B indexing. Temperature ranges span from -200°C to 1600°C depending on the type selected. The waterproof housing adds no compromise to measurement accuracy or response time.
We offer both assembled and sheathed versions in our waterproof thermocouple line. Assembled types (WRN-230WF) use a rigid protection tube. These are suitable for fixed installations like boiler walls and storage tanks. Sheathed types (WRNK-241WF) offer flexibility for tight spaces and vibrating equipment. Both versions undergo the same rigorous quality testing as our standard products.

Trusted Quality for Critical Measurements

 

Every waterproof thermocouple leaves our factory after complete inspection. We test insulation resistance, accuracy, and appearance. The waterproof seal receives special attention. Each unit undergoes a pressure test to verify the integrity of all seals and gaskets. This ensures reliable performance year after year.

Anhui Tiankang has manufactured temperature instruments for over five decades. Our CNAS-accredited laboratory verifies every batch of materials. The 18-month warranty gives customers confidence in their purchase. Export orders include CE certification, complete English documentation, and ISO17025 calibration reports. Custom configurations are available upon request.
