Model ER4000 is a retractable, electrical resistance probe commonly used in field and plant applications. A specially designed packing gland is used with the probe for insertion into or retraction from a pressurised system without a process shutdown. The probe is designed to mount onto a 1" piping system, but can easily be adapted to fit your specific requirements.

The probe assembly consists of an insertion rod with an element, a hermetically sealed connector welded in place, and a packing gland. A safety cable and safety nut are also provided to prevent blowout. A velocity shield can be added to the assembly if required. Standard packing material in the packing gland is Teflon®, however, Grafoil® packing can be provided for high temperature applications.

Several standard elements and lengths are available to meet your specific needs. (Please refer to the Element and Alloy Selection Chart for more information.)
