General Instruments Helicoidal Thermowell
GIC is the leading Helicoidal Thermowell Manufacturer providing Reliable Solutions for Accurate Temperature Measurement to the Process Industry worldwide.
The Helicoidal Well thermowell is a solid drilled thermowell for process temperature monitoring and control. The unique Helicoidal Well helical strake design eliminates the necessity for velocity collars where the wake frequency calculation would normally show failure caused by natural frequency vibration. The Helicoidal Well helical strake is very similar to the helical strakes seen on columns and cooling towers
