PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Validation Thermocouple

Entry Gland

Validation Thermocouple Entry Gland

For

Pharmaceutical Autoclaves

Conventional methods of chamber entry for validation thermocouples allow

only limited numbers of thermocouples to be used. They are relatively time

consuming in their application and frequently prone to unacceptable

leakage.

The TCEG/1 addresses both these problem areas by providing individual

slots for 18 separate thermocouples and a rapid action, locking and

securing mechanism.

By utilising a three part sealant arrangement the gland becomes a TCEG/2

with the opportunity of increasing the capacity to 36 individual

thermocouples. Should even more thermocouples need to be

accommodated, then a 'Y' adapter connected to the chamber entry port can

double both these quantities.
