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
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
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.
80psi
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.
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.
The probe is 1" long starting from the end of the male thread.
This thermometer has 1/2" male threads.
The thread was 1/2" NPT.

it’s 1/2” it is right on the description
1/2" MIP
It's 1/2 male ips.

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.
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.
Use a 3/4x3/4x1/2 tee, and a 1/2" female NPT adapter. Sent from my iPhone
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.
This gauge is 1/2" NPT and has a probe that extends about an inch beyond the thread.
Yes, this thermometer can be used for that application.
The well is included with this unit.
