Works just as you'd expect.

We are using this thermometer in the return line of a solar hot water collector and it is working just fine. It was flawless from the start and continues to be flawless.

Short life for me

Over the past 3 years I purchased 6 of these thermometers. The first 2 did not have the BII logo with the maple leaf, but otherwise looked identical. My guess is they were all made by the same Chinese manufacturer. Of the 6, only 2 still work, and one of those is accumulating water inside the glass, so it will probably give up the ghost pretty soon. If you need one to work for a couple months, I guess they are okay. These are relatively cheap, but I guess you get what you pay for.

More than I ever expected

Not exactly sure what I was getting but I got so much more than I expected. First one went MIA with UPS. SupplyHouse was kept in the loop a claim was filed and SupplyHouse let me know they were sending a replacement. Never did see the first one, but replacement is installed in a solar shower and working beautifully. Many thanks to SupplyHouse!

good product, nice design

This temp gauge comes with a well that threads into a half inch T. I use these for my solar hot water heating system, so I can easily read the temperature gain on the solar storage tank, and on the heat exchanger. I had installed the temperature and pressure indicator gauge, but it corroded. The tri-dicator is not for open loop systems.

Works for what I bought it for!

It measures the temperature in my cooker, I love the fact I can pull it out of the base so I won't break it when I clean my cooker!

Good general purpose thermometer

Great for monitoring temps generally, but not accurate enough for calculating BTU/H transfer rates and things.

Q: Is this gauge suitable for a working pressure of 100 psi My second try for an answer -- help please.

Asked by Mick the plumber 12 years ago

Mick, The gauge itself is unaffected by pressure as it simply slides into the snap well. The snapwell supplied is rated for 6 bar or 87 psi. You may be able to get a snap well rated for a higher pressure. Dan

Q: Is this temperature gauge rated for 100psi service

Mine had a brass insert that would easily handle 100 psi... The gauge itself doesn't touch what is inside the pipe. Only heat transfer to display the temp. Worked very well... Denton

Q: what is the rated operating pressure of this temperature gage

Asked by retired mechanical engineer 12 years ago

Add your answer

The gauge only sees atmospheric pressure. The thermowell is rated to 6 bar, as stated in the description.

The well is independent of the actual temperature gauge so the pressure in the system does not affect the gauge (gauge snaps in and out of the well). The well is designed for normal working pressures of most residential water systems (schedule 40 pipe, pex, type L or M copper) and I would suspect can take much higher pressures but I do not know what that is. If thicker wall pipe like schedule 80 is used and the system is to be tested with nitrogen due to extremely high pressures then I can't answer the question.

If I remember correctly, this temp gauge sits in a dry well. The dry well is a brass sweat well, or an NPT well. The gauge itself isn't subject to any system pressure. I say "if I remember correctly" since I've used different manufacturers and different products over the years. I hope this helped.

Q: you guys are confusing me. I want to put these probes in a 3/4" threaded tee. Will a 3/4 x 3/4 x 1/2 tee put the probe in the stream or will it hit the back of the tee. If it hits the back of the tee could I use 3/4 x 3/4 x 3/4 tee with a 3/4-1/2 bushing?

Asked by steve 13 years ago

Steve,   The threaded insert that comes with these thermometers will hit the back of a 3/4 X 3/4 X 1/2 inch tee if using the side port. Also, they're pretty think and tend to add a lot of head to the system when installed like that, so even if you use a bushing and a 3/4 x 3/4 X 3/4 tee, you may want to space it out a little to prevent any blockage in the tee.   I use these a lot in hydronic furnace installs and typically use copper tee's and a short pipe with a threaded female coupler at the end. I still get great temp readings and the well doesn't block the water flow.   Hope this helps.   -Mark

It would bottom out in the T on a 3/4" x 3/4" x 1/2". The 3/4" x 3/4" x 3/4" would work. You would need to have the flow make the 90 degree turn and the probe would need enough pipe connected to the T to go straight through one end and out the other.

Q: What is the proper brass or copper fitting for this to be used with 3/4" copper pipe?

Asked by Paul 14 years ago

Add your answer

We would recommend parts CP12-12 and TB12-12-08. Without a bushing, the probe on the thermometer would be too long to fit in a tee.

Was this review helpful to you?
- Another PexSupply Customer

Usually installed in the outlet of a tee. The fitting used depends on the specific location in the piping. If the tee is 3/4-3/4-3/4, use a 1/2"fpt x 3/4"cu threaded adapter or a 1/2"fpt x 3/4" cu fitting adapter. The object is to allow the tip of the stem on the well to extend into the fluid flow path but not touch the wall of the fitting. Other options are available, including a 3/4" cu x fpt threaded adapter with a 3/4" x 1/2" threaded brass bushing or a 1/2" fpt x 3/4" face bushing installed directly into the tee fitting. As long as the tip of the well is in the fluid flow path, the assembly doesn't leak and can be taken apart for future replacement or service, the thermometer will do it's job.

You would need a 3/4 to 1/2 to 3/4 copper T with a sweat 1/2" threaded female piece. The gauge will thread right in. You will need some Teflon tape for your threads as well. Sent from my iPhone

A couple options: 1. Install this thermometer into a 3/4"x1/2" Copper x Female Adapter next to a 3/4" Tee on the line to monitor temperature. This method isn't the most accurate as it places the thermometer too far from main line.   2. Install this thermometer into a 1/2" FTG x Female Street Adapter which is soldered into a 3/4" x 3/4" x 1/2" tee on the line to monitor.  This is the preffered method as it places the thermowell of the thermometer directly into the flow of the 3/4" copper line.
