What are temperature gauges used for?

The temperature gauges are used to show the current temperature of a fluid or ambient air. GTS offers two types of temperature gauge; the Bimetal temperature gauges and the Capillary temperature gauge.

How do the temperature gauges work?

The bimetal thermometers have a metal coil that contracts or expands as the temperature changes. This causes a rotational movement that moves the temperature gauge dial.

How do capillary temperature gauges work?

Temperature gauges with a capillary tube attached work by the expansion of the gas inside the capillary. As the temperature in the bulb heats up, the gas expands, increasing pressure, which moves a bourdon tube, which moves the pointer. At no point should the capillary tube be cut or opened.

How do I choose a temperature gauge?

The temperature gauge that you choose will be dependent on a few factors: Desired temperature range Dial size Pressure of media being used Preferred thread type & size Whether the stem needs to be on the bottom or back of the dial The desired length of the stem Stainless steel or brass materials Capillary length
