ACCESSORIES

Parker Autoclave Engineers offers a complete selection of accessories to complete your system requirements.

Thermocouples and Thermowells are used for monitoring and controlling temperatures in systems with operating pressures up to 60,000 psi (4140 bar). Thermocouples provide reliable temperature measurement within a system. The design permits installation of the element in direct contact with the fluid stream, thereby providing reliable temperature measurement. The quick-connector affords system flexibility. The thermocouple tip has a grounded-type junction.

Safety Head/Rupture Disc assemblies are used to protect systems and pressure vessels from over-pressure conditions. Rupture discs are available in various pressure ranges and material options suitable for the application.

Pressure Gauges are used to monitor and control pressure. P-Style pressure gauges are available in two sizes, 4-1/2″ and 6″ (114.3 mm and 152.4 mm), and ranges to 80,000 psi (5515 bar). Optional electrical contact faces for pressure
control are used to set high and low limits. Gauges are standard panel mount or can be flush mounted with an optional flush mount kit. H-Style stainless steel case gauges with K-Monel bourdon tube are also offered for corrosive applications up to 30,000 psi (2070 bar).

Gauge/Instrument Snubbers provide superior pressure gauge protection without compromising instrument accuracy. Available with male and female Medium and High Pressure Cone and Thread connections in 1/4″ and 3/8″ sizes.

Sheath-type Thermocouples:

  • Permits direct temperature monitoring at any point in a fluid system
  • Features grounded junction and rapid response (100 milliseconds or less at 63.3% of a step change)
  • 15-5PH stainless steel body; 316SS sheath brazed into body with gold-nickel alloy brazing material
  • Aluminum terminal housing is threaded onto body for ready access to terminals (an o-ring seal provides moisture protection)
  • Temperature rating to 2000°F at tip of thermocouple
  • Min operating temperature at the tip of the thermocouple is 0°F (type “J”) or -328°F (type “K”)
  • Operating temperature range for 15-5PH body is 0°F to 1000°F; operating temperature range for 316SS body is -328°F to 1200°F

Thermowells:

  • Provide isolation between a temperature sensor and the process
  • Protect the sensor from pressure, corrosion, abrasion or vibration caused by the process medium
  • Allow the temperature sensor to be removed / replaced without compromising either the ambient region or the process

Universal Safety Heads / Rupture Discs:

  • Provide an economical and dependable relief port to guard against system over-pressure
  • Available for Low Pressure, Medium Pressure and High Pressure applications
  • Non-rotating double-cone plug design avoids galling and scoring of safety head connection during installation (reduces likelihood of leakage)
  • Interchangeable hold-down rings permit use of different sizes and type of rupture discs in a single safety head
  • Installs directly into any standard Parker Autoclave Engineers fitting (coupling, elbow, tee, etc.)
